In this case, the make is "White-Western Star" ? |

Same type of truck as in "Maximum Overdrive". |
◊ 2006-04-02 01:03 |
Yes, but without the dash, like Junkman already suggested. |

No, Junkman is absolutely correct. Up to 1981 it was 'White Western Star'. After the change of ownership in 1981 it became 'Western Star' only. See the inscription on the bonnet side here: White Western Star: http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/loeb/wws_m_1.jpg http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/loeb/wws_w_1.jpg http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/loeb/wws_d_3.jpg Western Star: http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix//trucks/paul_downing/pd_ws03.jpg Link to "www.hankstruckpictures.com" http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/loeb/ws_d_1.jpg |

Only the year. Someone changed it without reading my comments. ![]() I changed it back to 1981. |

You're guys so mean to me and I just made a fool of myself. I need to quit and I need to stop to demand and I'll wait a month to change it. I'm sorry and I'm going to logout and chill out for a while. |

White-Western Star was originally an up-scale west-coast marketted truck in the late 60's. White Motor Corp designed the Western Star brand, built in British Columbia. Western Star became its own brand in the 80s and is now owned by Freightliner. Freightliner at one time was marketted by White and was sold under the name of "White-Freightliner." |
