Bob:
I gotta believe this is the same Futureliner Bill Moldenhauer and I visited
back in October 2004 in Michigan (details are on the oletrucks website under
the Member Only page). When Bill and I spent a day with the restorers, they
were about 60% finished, but I thought the vehicle was destined to go to a
museum in Indiana when finished.
Since there are so few of these left (the restorers knew of only two
others), I wonder if the museum changed their mind?
Can anyone shed some light on the history of this particular piece of
history?
