Got this yesterday from Sheffield as an unfinished project ; 14 Tonne Freightliner FL70 Cummins 6 cylinder.
Got it on the A1, no one about so opened her up ... 78 mph ... plenty left, drives really nice.
Bodywork needs to be finished and painted and then I`ll get some custom bits and bobs on it.

"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."
id have to unbolt all that Bananarama! stuck to that jon ,I hate trucks with too much going on,should have a factory look and just a few add ons maybe,looks like a chinos dashboard
the only bits that aint factory on mine is the porn collection,theres a freightliner for sale along the A14 at that truck dealer near thrapston,been there a long time now,,probably wants to much for it

Jon that frieghtliner looks like a good project, id bin that bevertail, & buy a used roger dyson double deck slide body, been a few for sale lately & they are a right good thing
You alway like to speed in every truck you get, where as now, i try and money driving slower, it really does make a difference.
I ve spent hours & hours with the fuel computer & different drving
Spent a full shift in my 24 ton daf today & have probably save a easy £30-40 by driving @ 50 instead of 56.
But saying all this will probably bore the t.i.t.s off you, you just wanna go fast in everything
