That part made me tear up, all the best from 🇦🇺 🍻
World Trade Center! Wow!
Love the history!
Awesome family!
All he best!
Same thicking
We got some old Detroits at my job. Incredible. You hear em miles away. Noise and smoke
Especially a 12v71. Non turbo just screams!
@@poppy-77 damn right
Always sounds like you're going 6 billion miles an hour in an old 2 stroke Detroit.
The thing with Detroits is because they don't have a torque rise like a Cat or Mack they don't damage the driveline or diffs and or depending who the driver is
Lot of pll put down the old 2 stroke DD but I love them..nothin sounds like that!
Great stories!!!! Thanks for all that y'all to to preserve history!!!!
Love the story and history of the truck! My father also has a 79 kw with the same paint job as that one with a 3406 cat A block in it. Gets used to haul grain year round still on our farm. Good old work horses!
Thats the best running engine hands down imy last one i got 2 million out of it 3 clucthes and a gallon of oil everyday 8v92tta that sound gives me goose bumps stilll after 40 years

Love these old motor
The history the owners everything about this truck is just badass
True as a mechanic learning how put engine together in every truck is like a puzzle 🧩 piese relley head eck trying fear out what's wrong with truck engines 2021
That true 2021
Agree true 2021
I had one in an International Eagle, great engine,, heavy drinker. better own an oil well.
Great engine the Silver 8V92TA set at 475 HP. Beware the Green 8V92, Detroit mechanics will know what I’m talking about. I’ve owned both.
Cool story and family and truck.
Thank you for the interesting story.
Love that K.W
The history on that Rig is really cool
That mechanic is pretty brave painting that Detroit white. Look at that straight blade fan. Not alot of fan clutches then.
Awesome sauce, mean A MODEL with that mean green in her.
Enjoyed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love your videos!!
Lot of war wounds on that ole K wobbler and it's still living to tell it's story through the love of the family. What an A model. That's trucking history at its finest.
The Detroit's, Cat's, and Cummins used to be painted by KW and Peterbilt white. International used to paint the engines red color at one time. The Cat's were yellow, Cummins a sand/beige color, the DD 2 strokes green, and the A-C's (Allis- Chalmers) were painted Royal Purple.
The 8v sounds the best
Not only is it cool seeing history but it’s also cool listening to history.
I also had a 1980 KW with 8V-92TA. Great sound-it sounds like you have one injector firing too hard at idle (maybe the recording) I loved that engine, but was very maintenance intensive.
Cool.
Ótimo vídeo gualidade total bazuka Foz do Iguaçu pr Brasil caminhonista também 🇧🇷🦈🇧🇷🇧🇷
I wrote this type comment before. The great people that would shake your hand and call you friend make trucking what it is not the trucks.
O.k. can someone tell me what's going on.
I'm sitting in downtown Vancouver Canada watching this video and right at the end when he fired up that Detroit, right at that moment I smelled diesel exhaust,...like I was there where the interview took place.
Wild! Nice old truck.
I'm just wondering if this is a silver series Detroit 8v92 they would run I drove a 79 cab over Peterbilt with a v8 cat 3208 with a 15 speed over drive transmission and 410 rear end gears and I tell you the only truck could pass me out on 81 was a silver series 8v92 specially when they were turned up they would run I had fuel turned up also not many of anything could pass me until a cab over Freightliner with a silver series was able to pull around me I know I was loaded heavy and the other driver told me that he had a bushel load on also I had to take his word but he was telling me the truth because he could barely get around me specially with the 15 over and 410 ratio rears I drop one out of over drive and talk about a powerful unit but one question why would you being a mechanic and being around Trucks would you only rebuild half the motor that is silly to me and anyone that knows about Trucks you do the whole motor now you have one side that is new but the other 4 cylinders can go at any time that I just don't understand that
Excuse me it had a 3408 cat I said 3208 because that is what I had in my boat
Lol, glad you corrected the 3208 to 3408, had me scratching my head...5.9 l Cummins will give a 3208 a run for it.
If it was stretched and had a drom box it'll look like the Thunder Run truck.
The original World trade center opened April 4 1973
He may have been involved in Hauling steel for construction of the New World Trade Tower..
I was thinking same thing. This truck was built after wtc was completed.
Detroit Diesel power #1,distinct sound they make.
This is so cool 😎 video traveling new York wow 😲 world trade center stuff faxing
That's very cool truck and I'll bet your ass that truck is going to be around for a very long time I bet you that little girl drives that thing in 20 years
Woooo. She’s country. Haha
I like paint new trucks 2021 videos
What does “no footin bootin” mean?
Don’t step on the fender
