I'm not sure your can even get a cab over here in the states any longer.
Definitely not for Class 7 or 8 trucks that is for sure.They are the ONLY option in Europe, Russia and Asia.Conventionals can be found in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa but generally play second fiddle to Cabovers.
In line with the topic this "Mack" (actually a Renault Truck).MDT pulling a Gooseneck horse trailer and living quarters on the bed
Without researching it I think Freightliner still offers a class 8 COE (cab over engine) in the U.S.
As a kid I remember cabovers everywhere; my Dad had a Mack cabover and of course one very popular orange-and-white Kenworth COE appeared on our TVs every week (BJ & the Bear).
I wonder why they faded so much in popularity? Maybe length laws changed.
