The Book of Pre-Emission Trucks
There are hundreds, probably thousands of trucks built with engines that don’t meet the current “clean air” requirements, but they earn their keep every day and provide a steady income for owners who are passionate about keeping them on the road. Kevin Carty owns the truck on the cover; he had it custom-built to his exact specification at the Freightliner plant in Vancouver. He changed out the engine and transmission, took a well-deserved several month break, removed the sleeper, had the truck repainted from the ground up, redid the upholstery, brakes, and tires, and then put it to work. It will outlast him.
