That truck needs to be completely restored. What an absolute beauty

Well, it's 5 years later Tex, and this is still my favorite U Tube video. I hope this finds you doing well and that all your loved ones are happy and healthy.

I was waiting for the next chapter. A kid with a dream, and a path of resurrection.

My dream is to find an old late 70’s Kenworth W900 like the one my dad drove and restore it. Someday... Love this Tex.

I once was up but now it's down ........ Need the blue to bring me around .been thru many a beaver 🦫 some white a few bark brown but nothing will break this Peter down!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Poem written by one eye Steve ...

If I could only watch one more video before I die this would be the one.

Very nice. She's still beautiful and with the right hands with a loving touch, she'll be the bell of the ball again

The stories that truck could tell if we could hear them! Great video Sir Tex! Hope all is well and great to see another master piece! 359 Pete's were the bomb back in the day!

Alan Gee if you’re an old enough trucker, like myself, you can hear them because you lived them.

I wish Pixar would make a movie like cars but strictly about trucks. Ol mac’s ,Pete’s, jimmy, cabovers that would be amazing.

WOW !! JUST WOW !! HOT DAMN GREAT VIDEO BUDDY !!

Great video and great narration!

That’s a good one

Poor Pete! :o

Very cool man

This is Awesome!

Sad in a happy kind of way!

Some good stuff, man! Enjoyed it and was left wanting more. 🇺🇸

Cool!

Excited to bring my 76 359 home to baby and restore her.

Any update? Would like to see the restoration process if it has started...

Dangerous split ring at 1:30.

Question: Can I use 3-4 seconds of one of your videos for a video I am currently making? I am making a GATS video but I only have day footage. I would like to include a a quick clip of some night footage that you have.

I'm only 13, and I'm building a 78 peterbilt, for when I'm older

I will be looking for the next chapter for sure, Peterbilts ARE the most rebuildable truck ever built, I KNOW ive done several. I pulled a 1985 out of the shop last march and after putting a wet line on it i worked it almost every day with nothing more than 3 oil changes and a new set of steer tires and even tho it doesnt ride as good or is not as quite as the new ones its been almost flawless. PT 270 BC III, 9 speed direct, ps and air ride, Never had A/C, no Jake just a truck, Reminds me of two things? One how far we have come , and two how we would killed to have had a truck like this NEW in 1985, ps its got dayton wheels too.God Bless to all, TRUMP 2020

That old Pete needs to be restored and fixed up

Wow, I’d trade my 379 fir her

Any update on the old dawg? WLBS
