      If he kept pushing up the time line and adding more work, I’d say $70k in any currency wasn’t enough.

      Well considering all your efforts and hardworking staff especially the deadline he gave you was ridiculous and working under an impossible timetable. You guys certainly earnt your money but I wouldn't have spent that amount on it. Great work guys! You should be very proud of yourselves!😁👍

      ​@@GreenJeep1998I agree buddy. The time he gave them in the beginning was a joke on it's own! Let alone him bringing it forward and expected the impossible by adding more work! I would have charged him twice that amount! Plus people should be held accountable and once the design or decision has been agreed upon it shouldn't be allowed to be changed by the customer unless it's mutually agreed upon with the staff. Giving businesses unrealistic time frames is not fair and they would have been under so much pressure restoring that old Mack. When people rush a job there's more pressure and stress put on that person or their workers and he's just lucky they managed to pull it off. There's nothing worse than rushing a job especially a custom restoration job.

      Plenty of 3408s in Australia. Not a great deal of them in highway trucks. There is a RUclips channel of a bloke with a cabover kenworth that does roadtrains with a 3408 in it. Gm something his channel is called. Maybe someone reading my comment can stear you to his channel. Though getting rarer, there is still quite a few of these e9 v8s getting around Brisbane most of them i see are either pulling tri axle tippers or they're truck and 4 axle dog configuration tippers (pretty sure you call them truck and pup, similar). There was and still is plenty of superliners in Australia though they're getting rarer to see. The truck in this video was very popular in day cab configuration for the oil companies towing B-double tankers when i was a kid. They were light tare weight and 500hp and at the time nothing was really close. Superliners were also very popular across the board as roadtrain primemovers and heavy haul work.
