That is beautiful. Imagine no phones, no GPS, no distractions. Just a good honest days work in that ole girl way back when... I want to go back in time.
It looks straightforward and uncompromising. Strong and honest. Like a good buddy. Good old days, the world will probably no longer become like that...
Oh yes, that's a real swell truck you have there. Lots off options. Even has the "rocka hula baby" dancing on the dash. Can't go wrong there, whole lotta shakin going on.
Amazing rig! Very original and well kept. Congrats also for the outstanding gear lever swing. The NTC pumps out music to my ears. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from Brazil.
Drove/restored a 1964 Pete, same engine. That sound is so familiar. Kept breaking old Spicer 5 spd SC main box, it didn't like 335 power pulling 80k belly dumps up hills all day. Put Eaton 10 spd in front of the 4 spd aux . Could take off on any hill with any load, yet top end was faster than I dared to push, 90mph or so. Could sometimes sneak up on 350s with the gear combos. Odd trans combo turned out really fun and gear spread with 40 possible combinations was amazing. Usually just drove it as a 10, using the 4 spd as a deep reduction like a primitive 15 speed. Sold to a guy who somehow jackknifed it and had to see my restored blue classic in a junkyard. Really sad.
That's a beautiful truck, I love those old Kenworth's, my dad had is twin sticks customized and angled so he could shift both w one hand, I still can't do it to this day, and I'm 35 lol, he had a way of catching the range w his pinky and part of his palm, looked so slick wish I recorded it to show it, Happy Holidays man, ty for showing me a piece of my history, was awesome!
one of the smoother ones I have seen on you tube although I still would like to see someone grossing 70,000 pulling a 6 percent grade split the gears going down without skipping a gear, that my friend requires 2 hands and perfect timing
@@jdm65kw89 not going to explain it. Just “google” “Cummins Back drop manifold, and after this “google” “Duel Peterbilt”, and probably than you”ll understand
I believe I saw you live in Washington? If so I’m curious how did you register the truck without having to pay tonnage and all that jazz. Looked like a collector vehicle plate? Also do you have a cdl to drive that privately?
I love everything except the air ride….but that’s just a personal choice kind of thing, never did care for air ride on anything that goes off the pavement….she’s definitely got the look!!

Amen to that
That is really nice. I love the compression release to start it. I drove a sixty three Pete with 335 that had that.

You can sure make the old lady sing a tune. Nothing sounds like a 335. Nice truck
Love these old trucks like the tachograph on dash beautiful old gal don't see many more
That truck has seen the whole world change while it remains the same.

Awesome
Dang nice truck you got there. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Did you have this beauty up at the August 2021 ATHS show in Brooks, OR?
I think I recall seeing it there.
Yes
If I didn't know any better I'd say you were between Lynden and Sumas east bound with mt Baker right on your nose.
Nice 👍
Nice video. Now go haul some logs with that old girl.
I believe I saw you live in Washington? If so I’m curious how did you register the truck without having to pay tonnage and all that jazz. Looked like a collector vehicle plate? Also do you have a cdl to drive that privately?
Collector vehicle
Is this truck gonna be at the Pacific Northwest Truck show on August 26-27th?
Also known as the Brooks truck show.
Next year probably without log gear
I had 3 others there this year. Took it last year
