    What a gorgeous replica! B.J. and the Bear came out when I was a little kid, and my Dad was driving trucks. This paint scheme on a cabover is as close to my heart as the Dukes of Hazard's Charger paint scheme!
    I'm glad this truck is in the hands of someone who really loves it and takes care of it. Soon there won't be anyone left who remembers the T.V. show, and why cabovers were developed in the first place.

Bob and Jacob are great people to talk with all the time. I'm glad to have met them both and look forward to seeing them in the future!

    That's a great-looking truck, we went to bed last year one night at the Vintage truck reunion in Ashland Ohio and woke up the next morning and he was parked in front of us. It was definitely a surprise and turned into the red and white truck parking area real quick! :-)

    I’ve been a long time fan of the B.J. and the Bear tv show and the truck as well when I was a kid growing up. Bob, y’all done a excellent job on your truck looking pretty 🤩 and smooth all over on the truck and trailer. I’d seen your other videos about your truck and was impressed with them. Hopefully I’ll be able to meet y’all somewhere up the road someday. God bless you and your family. Take care.

  • @Britcarjunkie

    I saw this truck 12 years ago, in the S.F. Bay area, at a warehouse: at that time the side panels on the trailer were still white. I chatted with the owner, and asked if I could take a pic of it, and he opened up his briefcase and handed me a pic, which I still have! (And just looked at)
    Always wondered whatever happened to it: glad to see it's still out there.

Looking back at it now, my video is very "non-HD" and unimpressive. I'm glad to see that you got really nice coverage of it, and you got a good interview to go along with it to tell the story. I'm happy the story of this truck will continue with a loving and caring owner.
