It is probably a 'White' Freightliner (pre-1978) but hard to tell from rad cap access logo. But it has an outside air cleaner for sure. Look at the one in the middle with the four headlights. The larger rad cap access is also the air intake for the engine. It also has the single vertical bar on the grill suggesting small to medium power. The darker one further along has two vertical bars on the grill indicating a wider rad and more power. It also has the air intake through the rad cap access. All have the round headlights (either two or four) standard on pre-1984 models.
