Some haulers were used by multiple teams and basically "handed down" as the trucks aged. There's a lot of that van body that reminds me of an Oleynik body; a lot of the contract racers had Oleyniks. Looks pretty basic, like hauling tasks only, not a support rig at the track, but of course things could have been changed over decades. The old trucks ride & drive, when compared to the newer stuff, a lot like a '60s car vs '00...but are so much cooler. I had an Oleynik Kenworth race boat hauler I should have kept it...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Wish they still made those kind of enclosed haulers. A modern version would be nice. I know its easier with a pick-up and you can use it as a daily but I hardly drive mine when not hauling. I put about 15k in 11 years. Hodges still makes them, and I have recently seen new rollbacks with enclosed body's...
