FOR SALE – Freightliner Classic N14 Red Top 500

If you’re looking for a truck from the era when Class 8 trucks were built to last, this 1998 Freightliner Classic deserves a look. Finished in eye-catching canary yellow, this Classic carries the unmistakable long-hood styling that made Freightliner a favorite among owner-operators for decades.

Under the hood is the legendary Cummins N14 Celect Plus Red Top 500 HP, paired with a 13-speed Eaton Fuller transmission and 3.70 rear gears, a combination well-known for reliability, pulling power, and excellent drivability.

This truck runs, drives, and shifts properly through all gears. It has not been licensed or regularly operated for approximately three years, but remains a solid running truck with tremendous potential for an owner-operator, farm operation, collector, or someone looking to put a classic pre-emissions truck back to work.
