W900…….wide cab ?

Jack Buell from St Maries ID had a couple B model hoods that they extended. They looked pretty dang good with that big square front end.

 

Kenworth makes a wider hood, the W900b. It’s just shorter. Still a beautiful truck.

 

I searched for some Buell extended B's without any luck. I did come across this in my search.

 

His shop did 2 or 3 of them. They pulled chip trailers with them. They’re probably still parked around his shop in Idaho because I don’t think they ever get rid of anything. He’s still running a bunch of A model log trucks.

The only other custom extended B hood I can think of was TeWashO had one pulling reefer for a while that also had an extended Aero 1 bunk on it.

 

I've seen this truck in person. Beautiful truck, but its still a 1.9 meter "B" cab W900L. Not a wide cab and not a W990. They're building 900 limited edition W900Ls this year, this is #001. They'll all either be 86" studios, 72" flat tops or extended daycabs. The three-color paint scheme pictured is optional but not required on these builds.

This is the Kenworth 100th anniversary limited edition series. This year (2024 year-model) is not the last year for W900L production, in case anyone was wondering. Kenworth doesn't do it like Peterbilt does, where their limited edition trucks only show up at the end of a model run like the 359 numbered classics, 379X and now the 389X.
