PENDING SALE 2003 Sterling/Freightliner SC8000 Cargo- Cummins, allison & custom Marmon-Herrington AWD: perfect blank canvas for heavy overlander

[ytsurrr]

Decided to keep the truck during my overseas trip. It's been too useful recently and should store in the pole barn just fine. I may consider flying back to make the sale to the right buyer with good intentions, but look forward to building an overlander in a few years! Thanks to everyone for the interest, questions, and posts. Tried to delete the thread, but can't figure it out. Mods feel free to remove. I'll keep looking for the delete!

Let me know if you change your mind about keeping it, would like to come look at it. Sent you a pm, too.

All, I am putting this unique rig back up for sale. I will be stateside starting mid-December for a month and look forward to anwering questions and showing it to anyone interested. Thanks.

Did this truck ever sell?
Super cool base to start a build with, just wish it was on the west coast.

Thanks for the question and comment about the SC8000. It is still for sale. I have had some interest, but does seem most interest comes from the west, which makes sense considering what this truck could be. I am hoping someone does eventually use it as a base for a great overlander wherever they use it!

I ran it in December and early January. One good cold start right at 15 degrees F and some maneuvering through about 8" of snow. I have enjoyed my share of personal and work-related offroading around the world, and I am impressed with how well this rig's 4x4 system works in slick conditions even with no adjustment to the high PSI in those semi truck tires.
