I agree

Sincere condolences to Bob, his family and friends. I truly enjoyed seeing him in his episode with the other cracker box. Growing up in Canton Ohio area there were a ton of cracker boxes hauling the likes of coal and steel with that distinct Detroit 2 stroke power plant.

Absolutely, it was my pleasure. Will miss seein him and the Cbox 😔

Wow, Dane...a "Corn Binder"!! When was the last time I heard that expression??!! How cool is that!! Absolutely loved the interior shots of that classic truck. I was "crazy" about those trucks as a kid...now I (finally) got to see what's "inside the box"!!! Thank you so much, my friend. 👌👌👍👍

I know right? They were everywhere, I drewled over them too. 😬👍

Transtar I used to drive was older but they kept the basic style along time. RIP Bob. My ears can never forget those 318's..

My dad had a 69 Transtar when I was a kid. 250 Cummins, Roadranger transmission. I remember we stopped and he got a cup of coffee. He handed it to me to hold while he drove. We were bobtailing, half the coffee ended up in the floor and on me. I always loved the Transtars.

What a great memory to have!!! And an awesome truck to remember it with! 😬👍

O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸 Good morning brother! Thanks for the tribute to Bob! I so enjoyed meeting him last year & I loved his Crackerbox! I always encourage people to share their hearts/appreciation to those in their circles for you never know when you get to see them again. I loved hearing his story of the truck! Your KW is coming along. I think they changed that hole on the back of the cab a bit over the years. It never struck me before now. Did you ever notice that? I hope that you go ahead with the arrow design on the side/back of your cab. It doesn’t have to run onto the front of the cab. You can make it work. That Transtar 2 is quite a nice looking truck. Someone will get a nice red top Cummins IH & be proud of it! They were really nice trucks. Just goes to show you that you never know what may be out there each time you travel. Blessings my friend. 🥰🤩✌️

Yes your right Paul, it’s sad to see how many we have lost in the 10 years I’ve going to the shows. 😟 Ya I’m leaning towards the movin on “theme Truck” on this one. That Transtar will be a prize for someone for sure.

Transtar 2 was one good riding cabover 👍

My Transtar 2 had a 10 speed and a 350 Cummins , Hendrickson suspension. No Jakes. The interior had the exact same carpet. My dash was flat black. AC, power window on the passenger side. Moto mirrors on both sides. Heated of course! I had 3 amber chicken lights on each side and the mirrors had lights ( factory) on the front of them. There were soooo many variations on the Transtar tractors. Thanks again for the great coffee and a chance to remember the time before! Keep growing up Grasshopper! God bless and safe travels!

Hello Dane, Doing a great job on Grasshopper! As for the TV show "Moving On " . A fact , the first season the K900 had a Cummins V8 903, with a 13 speed. The 2nd season had an NTC 350 with a 10 speed. Why the change is beyond me. For just using a spray can that paint job looks great. Good luck to you Sir. That Transtar must have been an Eagle , to have the wood grain dashboard, most were plain black. Plus the padding in the bunk. If not an Eagle, definitely a step up from the stripped models most companies would use.

Great info I didn’t know Bert, they also changed the scheme by removing the door arrow. Yes I think it was an Eagle.
