    here's a long yellow 359 I've spotted in Louisiana..the truck had Texas plates on it and had a 379 sleeper on it... Great feeling seeing a classic still out there...if I was him I'd put the original sleeper on and looks like it had a bigger sleeper at one point image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

    Another issue..my 359 image.jpeg

    I have no air pressure and no brakes all of a sudden..weird..I haven't diagnose the issues yet..I'm guessing a rotted airline..hope not compressor or..I brought a governor so far and next I'll see in if its pumping air..then I'll know...

    Truck won't build up air.. Seats won't go up nor air bags along with brakes released

    I agree plum shop air to it. If you can hold yoyr thumb over the hot line fitting with the motor running then you have compressor trouble. Possibility it just needs an unloader kit
