Check out this amazing vintage hauler once used by Richard Petty! Everything about this thing is original. It's literally a rolling museum. Just amazing!! grassrootsnascarracing@yahoo.com
With a cabover you were always aware you would be the first one at the crash site!! So you were always alert. I spent many weeks and years in cabovers until I got my first "hood" in 1982. Second long nose in 1986 and final new truck in 1990. Finally, three million miles was enough to call it a career. From the 1970s on, we saw a lot of these NASCAR haulers going up and down the roads. Especially in all of the southeast states. Good memories. Had lunch with the 43 crews several times. Thanks for bringing back the memories!!
Thank you so very much for showing that. The history of that rig is mind boggling. It is so cool that it still exists and in such great condition. Thanks again.
Wonderful video! Thank you for doing such a great job filming the interior of the L1000! There is very little information or all original examples out there of these trucks to view. The more the better! Lots of really cool history in the back of that truck as well that looks fairly untouched! Super cool stuff, thanks for sharing!
I seen big daddy in kc in the early 80s he had an old beatup 1ton pickup and a little enclosed trailer those old guy's did whatever it took to race compared to today
