I thought that all Austrian Cab 12 had those braces to hold the roofs on at high speed. in the Southern Hemisphere they have enough open space to get a Cab 12 up to it's terminal velocity. First time my Cab 12 hit 50 mph (on the car hauler coming home) the roof pealed back from the windshield. Did that happen to you too when hauling one home?

I do want add that the truck is a true find, glad to hear you guys will keep an eye on it to be sure it doesn't slip away.
