People think I'm lying when I tell them the only aluminum on my W900A's cab are the doors and rear cab wall. Wonder how common the steel cab was?

I have it stripped down in my garage and honestly it looks so wimpy. I'm actually kind of impressed some of these trucks are still on the road after 40+ years.

All truck cabs look frail when stripped all the way down. Part of that is the reason those lasted,
if built too stout cracks from vibration wouldn't take long and be transferred throughout the
cab. It would turn it into a drum.
