From what I understand, the 'Aero Brigadier' was a proposed second generation Brigadier that would have used a version of the GMT 400 cab. It was to be a 'big brother' to the GMT 530 TopKick/Kodiak. The idea was dropped when GM merged their heavy truck operation with Volvo/White in 1987. Interestingly, there was another proposed 'Brigadier' sometime around 2004, which might have been a 2003 style GMT 560 Topkick with a longer and taller hood to accommodate a large-bore diesel.
