My dad drove one of those for Lyons, had a 350 Cummins and was a strong pulling truck. His cabover was a twin screw truck number #972 He worked out of the Oil City terminal.
I love hearing that Buddy! You sure about the 350? Seems all those 7400s were ordered with the 903/ Roadranger 10 speeds. I could be wrong though. You even know the truck number... that is so cool. Any pics?
Hey Dane! Thank you so much for coming out and filming. It means the world to us and you did it justice just fine. Keep on truckin', and to anyone who's watching, there's more content of the truck on our channel!
Back when trucks were TRUCKS...These Guys today would be LOST with one of these old Trucks. Good looking old White. The sound of that 903 is Music...LOL
There was a company near me called National Rolling Mills they would buy Freightliner cabovers with 903's in them, I can still see 12 new ones sitting at the dealer in the early eighties when they came from the factory. 903's is all they would buy.
Seeing the old Red Star Road Commode day cab at 5:24 stirs the memories. An old friend used one to haul steel back in the late 1970’s, it was a day cab twin screw, 903 with a 5 & 4, no power steering. It got the job done, running Chicago & Detroit from N.E. Ohio. One time at the old Truck City place around Detroit, late one night some punks thought they would find a truck driver with a lot of money so the proceeded to try & block him in with a couple four wheelers, but unknown to them my friend was up for a fight & just locked in the power divider & just let the old 903 rip in granny gear & shoved the cars out of the way & even partially ran over one with the tandems on the trailer. He could’ve very easily smoked their asses being he was a former combat vet with time in ‘Nam, but shoving them out of the way seemed like the thing to do at the time apparently.
SO great you found a V903 NA that runs and drives still.... The US Govt had a lot of VT903Ms and they were used in Bradley fight vehicles and had twin water to air intercoolers and twin turbos and some of them ran well up to 1000 horse ... I work with a crew than runs Super stock pulling tractors that use the 903M Blocks and they can turn well over 6000 horse with OHC and 4 turbos plus twin coolers
@@DaneScottsTRUCKERSLOUNGE Yeah and those high horse machines may be running at the Mid America truck show since There is a Tractor pull in the works there to be put on With Lucas OIl Pro Pulling
Hello Mr.dane thanks again for old trucking tour of the white truck Cabover denny trucking is do remember red star express running that white Cabover i use see in Connecticut and new jersey on 95 i finally had a chance to see what looks like inside of white Cabover thanks Dane old school Cabover videos you're old times remembering back to life👈
I drove one of those when I was many many years ago and I did not have a the correct license. Thanks again Dane for hitting it right on the head. So long ago I forgot about it.
When I was a “kid” I spent some time in a 7400 twin screw with a sleeper. It had a 335 Cummins with at 10 speed,and it really wasn’t a bad truck to drive. But you’re sure right about lifting the cab! I I imagine it was bad enough with a day cab,but try lifting the sleeper version! It really did take two men to lift it,and with ball and socket shifter you needed a third,preferably not to bright person,to stay under the cab while lowering it to make sure the ball went into the socket. I may look stupid,but I’m not that stupid so I did the lifting and lowering.
There are no fence-sitters with the Cummins 903. You either love them or hate them. I love them… My first experience with the 903 was in the military. They always got me home. Now I have a 1971 Kenworth 2-axle daycab cabover with a NA V-903. The tractor was built new for Bruce Motor Freight as one of an order of five. Eventually my family got it, and I remembered it from my childhood, but was sold in the early 90’s. I found it again in 2015 and bought it, and I’m now restoring it. I have a few videos of it on my channel. Anyway, I really enjoyed this video. Great editing and storytelling. Plus, what’s not to love with a 903 in a slab cab? Thanks for sharing.
Hello Dane, another great video a blast from the past. Denny is quite the knowledgeable fella. It blew me away when it fired up better than most new trucks, no hesitation. Thanks for the video bud............
Thanks Dan, Denny is very knowledgeable and I learn a lot listening to him. I couldn’t believe how that 903 just came to life in 2 seconds. We actually had to delay the run and drive portion a week as there was a little water in one cylinder last week and it “hydra-locked” It was outside a few weeks ago when it snowed and it melted down the intake in back. It’s never left outside so it was just a fluek. Denny knew just what to do and so we just continued the shoot yesterday on such a beautiful day.
We used to run a hyster 50ton folding neck in the oil field in Mississippi. Hauled a 530 pay loader on it mostly for loading tubing and rig move stuff.
Wow, so good Dane. Thanks for the ride along. Sweet unit. Great hangin out with you and Dennis For the first few minutes you kept me guessing about the Fiat Allis (or Fat Alice as we used to say). Figured it to be a 645-B and finally the designation came into view and I was right. 2nd sales job I ever had was selling Fiat Allis full line crawlers and loaders in my early 20’s. Sold a 545, 645 and 745 in my short stint in that biz. Awesome video work with lots of attention to detail.
I grew up with a lance potato chip truck like this coming thur my alley daliy.and did yours ended up in chicago ,I seen a nice black 1 about a year or 2 ago.
G'day Dane that was a excellent video cool truck and trailer hearing that 903 sounds great great job keep up the good work all the best keep on trucking latter
Another great one dean as always love old company trucks like this one and the history of the trucking industry.if you ever see a international.eagle 4300 .late 70s to early 80s could you do a video . reason asking is my Dad always had those what started me off in the love of trucks you got a great channel dean really in joy your work ps love your house across the street that. Is awesome 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Dave, I certainly will try to eventually get a 4300 on here For sure. Love the old IH’s. Glad you enjoy the content and Thanks for watching as always😬
Great show Dane. Remember them old whites in seventies. Drove 903 in a international in seventies. Schneider international out of Green Bay wisc. Ran lots of these in cabover internationals. Merry Christmas Dane. Always enjoy your shows. And the gentleman that owned the white the same. Nice truck.
Awesome truck. Would love to see more period correct trailers to me thats just as interesting as the trucks themselves. Be cool even if someone just restored old trailers.
Yet another great video. You’re really inspiring me to grab one of these old beauties and restore it. I’ve got a couple candidates that I took pictures of, if you’d like to see them let me know how to contact you to send the pictures along - Will
Quite an interesting story on the engines. You'd figure they'd come up with something to melt snow that wouldn't rust steel to ribbons. His gray pickup doesn't look that old but looks like it's already rotting bad in the rear. I remember going to PA a lot when I was doing long haul. Nice people live there but the long cold snowy winters aren't for everyone.
I definitely do not like the long winters! Lol. But I suppose you could argue it does make you appreciate and make good use of the time of spring and summer.
Back in the day when the length limit was shorter & the weight limit was lighter in the USA🇺🇸, cabover semis were the king of the roads. Also back in those days whenever anyone heard or saw the word "semi", a cabover was the first thing they thought of. Today, only a small number of them are still in service.
@Dane Scotts - TRUCKERS LOUNGE I think the US Guv and other governments wanted a wider powerband and more rpm for their military applications. Personally, I'd would want to pull the torque and hp peaks back to the traditional 1200-2100 band with a cam swap. Bet it would help the mpg.
Dane, I am also a gay man very into trucks and the handsome men that put the pedal to the metal. Keep up the great work, my boyfriend and I just love your videos and your openness ❤❤
Hi Dane, that was really a nice old working truck.. but couldn't you get a closer look at that IH Fleetstar? dumptruck he got there in the corner ? It also looks quite nice.
The original green LTL door is still in the shop there. I’ve seen a video of that truck doing a burnout too. Lol. Did he bust out the l9000 for you? Or the loadstar?
@@ctprecast7437 no doubt. Just don't care for the attitude many have as if double clutching was bad, or not manly.... it is what the manual says. I have driven my 5 speed bmw without the clutch when the clutch cable broke. I can do it just fine. But using the clutch is much faster. My unimog liked double clutching. I used to do in town door to door deliveries with it.
Porter greetings! 🇺🇸 Another nice truck and nice coverage! Those little deflectors, if on those Whites, would rust out easily it seems or you would see a chrome one. I imagine they did help some. Was the wench powered by a pto? I assume so. I love the old roller wheel on the back between the frame rails. You don’t see that too often. Wonder if he installed that. And the V903 Cummins…I’ve heard both and good about them. Actually, would it be VT903 and that would refer to it as being turbo equipped? The Movin On KW had a VT903 in it. Did you know that? That was the 1st time I had heard of that engine….I wasn’t sure if it was a Cummins or Detroit or what at that time. I’m still learning about some of those old trucks and engines, and you’re helping as well. Sharp little truck. I love single axles, you know! I didn’t remember the little curve on the front of that cab. Nice design for White. That Cummins seemed a bit peppy…I like that! 🥰 I liked the Hyster trailer, actually both of the trailers. Did you enjoy that ride or what?! Thanks!!! 😎🥰✌️
It’s a very unique and cool truck for sure. Mine was VT 903, not sure why they used both turbo and non-turbo. Probably to compare. This one is very powerful and pulling a D6 cat at 80 proves it’s a beast. Lol. Thanks for watching as always Porter Prod.😬
@@DaneScottsTRUCKERSLOUNGE 🇺🇸 If it will pull a dozer like that then it has to be powerful! It did sound like it still had pep in it. I like that in a Cummins engine, and I’m not much of a Cummins lover. I know you liked your White truck! Who wouldn’t! Good action! 😎🤩

Central Freight has been going downhill since they merged with Viking in the '90s. I lost count of the number of trucking companies that shut down under the last administration.
You might checkout the channel destination adventures he owns a scrap yard in Hutchinson Kansas He has an old R.E.O cab over sitting in his yard that needs to be saved.

The pleasure was all mine buddy, thank you for sharing some awesome vintage iron with us. Looking forward to next time.
Glad to see it was nothing serious keeping the truck down Denny. Can't wait to make my way back up there and see it again
Dane, never had much luck driving those 903s they made alot of noise but no power I mean a 250 Cummins had more pull😒
I drove one of those for a company when I was in my mid twenties, felt like I was king of the road. I'm 74 now, ;)
Well maybe not King of the road any more but a "Veteran" indeed. Thanks for watching!
Back when trucks were TRUCKS...These Guys today would be LOST with one of these old Trucks. Good looking old White. The sound of that 903 is Music...LOL
And here I thought Chad had old tractors! 1972 and still pulling freight. Awesome.
And he doesn't baby it either..lol
when he tuck off i got that feeling i use to get riding with my dad in the 70s
THATS what its all about Bud! Thanks for watching.
Great work Dane love seeing the old trucks still earning their keep.
I hear ya! Thanks David
There was a company near me called National Rolling Mills they would buy Freightliner cabovers with 903's in them, I can still see 12 new ones sitting at the dealer in the early eighties when they came from the factory. 903's is all they would buy.
Wow! Even into the 80s! There was obviously a good reason for that. 😬👍
Just saw this video even though it’s a year old…Like trucks of all kinds but especially like cab-overs like this White…TY Dane

Sweet ride! I love the sound of that motor. I would also love to own either one of those trailers!
And run em for “Medallion”? 😜🤘
That Cummings rolls out .nice truck. Like the old timer He definitely got Dezeil running threw his veins .
He sure knows his stuff for sure. He’s quite a guy.
We used to run a hyster 50ton folding neck in the oil field in Mississippi. Hauled a 530 pay loader on it mostly for loading tubing and rig move stuff.
Quite a piece of equipment for sure! Thanks for watching
Even though it's a V8 it is most definitely a Cummins! That exhaust note is undeniable! Love to here one with Jake's on it.
Me too!! Thanks for watching
I bet that has earned some money for its owners over the years , and still continues to do so
Another great truck.Thank you.
Nice ride along. The view and the sound bring back memories.
That’s what it’s all about! So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Awesome my father worked on the dock in Detroit
Just found your channel and love it. My Dad drove for A&P from 1940s to the 1980s.
Well Thanks for watching. Hats off to your Dads service. Merry Christmas to you.
Such a really neat truck to have these days
Thanks for watching “Boat Bound.”
That was great. Glad to see it running, I can't wait to go back up and see it again.
Wow, so good Dane. Thanks for the ride along. Sweet unit.
Great hangin out with you and Dennis

Worked for Dilliner Transfer back in the 70s, they had several of these. Some Cummins and some cats.
Great video footage and the ride along, back when the made trucks simple with the basics and it worked. thanks Dane.
Thank you Dan, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 😊
That one trailer is in amazing original condition!!
I grew up with a lance potato chip truck like this coming thur my alley daliy.and did yours ended up in chicago ,I seen a nice black 1 about a year or 2 ago.
Thats the white i was talking about the other day
G'day Dane that was a excellent video cool truck and trailer hearing that 903 sounds great great job keep up the good work all the best keep on trucking latter

hi great video love the winch and trailer nice to see a working truck
I drove for red star for 20 years they went out of business in 2004 l miss red star was good trucking companie.
My hats off to you Bill! Your part of Americana. 😬👍 Did you drive with the 903?
I bet that White cabover turns a lotta heads when u drive down the road in it. They're super duper rare nowadays.
What a truck.love the sound.
I wish I could capture the rumble ... it really sounds powerful. Thanks for watching
Another great video, thank you for taking the time to make them. God bless.
And thankYOU for watching them😬
Thanks Dane I love the old crackerboxs there so cool thanks again for the awesome video man
Me too lol. Thanks for watching
Interesting story about the door handles too!
I know ... I was shocked but it makes so much sense. Thanks for watching
Very cool truck Dane
That V903 sure sounds sweet, if I’m not mistaken it might still be made for the Bradley’s as a VTA903 in the 600HP range.:)
Last I knew yes still a Military motor. It’s definitely a unique sound, very “throaty” standing next to it.
Love cabovers
Another great truck! I’m really enjoying your channel and others must be as well from the growth I’ve seen in just a short time! Take care!
Thank you for the encouragement 😬I appreciate your watching.
Nice single drive White 7000.
Interesting story about the 903 Cummins engines...
She fired right up too!
A friend of mine had the same model with a sleeper and a 250 Cummins with a three speed axle. We used to call them Japanese freight liners.
I hear that a lot bout the nickname. Thanks for watching the channel!

I saw one in the sixties with a flat doghouse and a very short 6-8 inch shift lever. Air shift I believe.
Ive never heard of a white tractor. I whish the owner will show it a little more love n tlc.
He’s got a lot of equipment and he works it and is still very busy but he’s been all through it mechanically and DOT praised him on it.
Great show Dane. Remember them old whites in seventies. Drove 903 in a international in seventies. Schneider international out of Green Bay wisc. Ran lots of these in cabover internationals. Merry Christmas Dane. Always enjoy your shows. And the gentleman that owned the white the same. Nice truck.

@@DaneScottsTRUCKERSLOUNGE 🇺🇸 If it will pull a dozer like that then it has to be powerful! It did sound like it still had pep in it. I like that in a Cummins engine, and I’m not much of a Cummins lover. I know you liked your White truck! Who wouldn’t! Good action! 😎🤩

What's up
Hi
Central Freight has been going downhill since they merged with Viking in the '90s. I lost count of the number of trucking companies that shut down under the last administration.
I know its sad.
How did he avoid dry rot??
He’s very on top of everything he owns so it’s well preserved
Did they not come with a air horn Dane?
Hmmmm, not sure. Mine did but were an aftermarket addition.
This specific one didn't
You might checkout the channel destination adventures he owns a scrap yard in Hutchinson Kansas He has an old R.E.O cab over sitting in his yard that needs to be saved.
Makes me wonder why Cummins stopped building v8s.
Drove a 903 Cummins for one week back in 1973, and a good running 250 would have been better.Hated it!
May have been one of the first batch that they had to totally revamp.
Should have went with Detroit Diesel
Curious why?
