Roadway spec'ed most of their line-haul tractors that exact way in the 70's, regardless of make. I have seen Roadway White 4000's and Mack R's set up that same way, and seeing/hearing an R with a Jimmy 8 under the hood is weird to say the least. And Roadway had 100's of them.

Funny the truck looks to have a Chevy grille with 'GMC' letters on it.
