Victoria, the 1989 Ford C8000 COE truck (not a bus).

Hi gang, this isn't a bus...but several people asked me for an update on this old 1957-model truck we got. So, I did my very first YouTube video about her! Yay!

Some of you have also asked for more info on some of the vintage buses we have, so I'll work on those videos over the next few weeks.

Here...please meet Victoria:

Cool truck! I would not have guessed 1989. Always fun to "meet" the people we've been corresponding with too.

Thanks! And, yes, I love that this truck looks much older than it is. They made the same body style from 1957-1990...a long run! Everywhere I take her, people ask if she's a 50s or 60s.

Now...if you REALLY want cool style...the model before this one (with the rounded nose) was amazing. But they're harder to find and go for much more money. After auction fees, the purchase price on Victoria was $4070...a deal in my book.
