Max Smoot ◊ 2009-11-05 06:25	The truck is between 1978 and 1982. Pre '78 models had 'White Freightliner' on the cab front. The round headlights identify it as a pre-FLA series, probably an FLT9664 -- the single vertical bar on the grille means that it has a smaller rad suggesting a 290 to 350 hp engine. It doesn't appear to have the 'Michigan cab' which is identified by a steel panel overlaying the aluminum bodywork below the windshield and surrounding the grille. I owned a 1980 that looked almost exactly like this but with the Michigan cab. This one looks a lot tidier.
