  • James and I travel 2000 miles to save a neglected old Peterbilt left for dead. Will we make it? Will the truck and trailer I built survive without issue? Watch and see!

    I don't usually make these kind of comments but in response to your remark "this is the worst day I've had in a long time". I would give my left nut to be where you guys are doing what you are doing instead of sitting in this old folks home waitin to die. Count your lucky stars Wayne. You are a truly Blessed man.

      Man Ray that comment sure hits home on perspective. I really appreciate you taking a moment to share that because I am indeed truly blessed and honestly very grateful for it even though it don't seem it sometimes. I sure wish I had something more uplifting to say to ya bud but no matter if you have 1 day left or 10,000 I sure appreciate every minute of your time you spend here with me watching the channel. Great comment thanks again.

    My best friend had a 3408 in a W-900L, beast of a truck! Back in the early 80's I worked for a Co. out of Phoenix, and while my truck was getting a rearend replaced, they ask me to take this old cabover Pete to LA and back to test out a 430 Detroit they had been hopping up, and had installed a electric fuel pump to help the manual pump, and they had so much fuel turned to it that it would run out of fuel about half way up a mountain pass! Told me to flip on this toggle switch when going up the mountain, and see if it helped? Dang, that old Detroit came to life, and pulled that load of produce up that mountain like it was not there! Needless to say, I left the switch flipped on a lot of that trip, turned that old Pete into a hotrod! It got about 3 MPG with the switch flipped on, and around 5 MPG with it off!

    My dad & his buddy were driving for an implement dealer in the 70s during the times when the teamsters were wreaking havoc on non-member trucks. They were in an IHC 4070 with extended bunk & would take turns between the driver's seat & the bunk, both with sawed off 12 gauges & the load lights on & the engine on fast idle all night so they could see what was going on & be able to make a quick dash. It must have been hell trying to sleep over top of the running 8V71 at 1500rpm. I used to sit in the truck while he was pulling it into the shop when he would get home & toot the air horn coming through the door.

    Thanks for taking us along to the get the truck and you all had to really work hard to get that rim off, so you could get a wheel with a tire on it, on the truck . And having to deal with the hot temperature was bad, but you all finally got it loaded and chained down . I know that it's going to be a lot of work and take a lot of time . But I believe that it can be made into a really nice looking truck . That old green Pete is an awesome sounding truck moving down the highway, hauling butt . I love your music with the video and the different angle shots, it was a great video . I will see you all later, so take care and stay safe working on the trucks and traveling .
