    IMG_7532.JPG IMG_7533.JPG IMG_7534.JPG IMG_7536.JPG Decisions Decisions. I'm really thinking if someone was to twist my arm, actually I don't think it even needs twisted! Truly thinking of making a call.
    84 359, double eagle, Cummins / 5x4 ( married ) 24.5 tall, air ride. I like the looks of a flat top but.... not convenient for someone like me, plus this would have more room if my wife was with me, you know storage for girl stuff :rolleyes::D.

    I'm not familiar with Peterbilts at all. What are all those white dots in the 2 vertical columns next to the glove box? Circuit breakers?

    That's actually pretty cool. I might do that to my KW, rather than a generic fusebox inside the dash.

    Ever driven a 5x4 married (Spicer I think)?
    Be a good idea to have the current owner take you for a ride and give a tutorial. I ran one a a bit and could not get the air shift brownie to shift smoothly, but perhaps there were issues with it. I learned to drive on a 5x4 two stick, so I had a good understanding of how things work.
    ###### tempting though, and it appears to be well taken care of!
     
    bigguns, sawmill, Feedman and 7 others Thank this.

    Lol :D.... now surely you wouldn't be caught in this thing lol!!! I was told it needs a few things but, he drove it home from Texas a few years ago I was told. Owner is a freind of a freind of mine, don't know him but truly thinking I'll call tomorrow and ask about it. I was told he is a true CAT man and won't drive it because it is Cummins powered, silly but oh well. I was shown pics of his other 359... talk about SWEET!!! Big flat top, Cat / 6x4 all in show condition. This one needs a few things but not much from what I'm told. I would just need to hitch a ride west of the big creek to get it.

    No stranger to a set of sticks nether :), Was told he has the trans out now and was going to divorce them but never finished it. That may be a bargaining tool
