One of my picks for chassis was the Spartan simply i was looking for an older DP that had a side radiator. I didn't think the FL had that, but I have been wrong before. Just ask my wife. ;)
Actually your Dutch Star was available with either a Spartan or a Freightliner, both with a side radiator.
Back then Freightliner also offered a front engine diesel puller - the original FRED chassis.
Since then, depending on the year and model, they've offered either, or, or both.
If you were buying a new Dutch Star today you'd have your choice between Freightliner or Spartan.
