1995 Peterbilt 379 short hood

i understand brotha. I have a good friend that sold his old pete for a newer truck. cost him 25 k in engine problems first year of ownership. HAd to sell truck. Now back in 20 year old truck. 2 years now and not a single hiccup. Is why i run old iron myself

 

I love it.its a nice ride,but i had to work on it a month just going thru it.replacing this an that . and adding my light show,inside.i use to drive a brand new 1996 back in the day when i first started driving. so brings back some memory's ruining grocery's out to CA an bringing wine back to Mn from Santa Rosa.If we ever decide to sell it, you have first dibs Javelinjeff

 

I will give you a call on Sunday or Monday if you do not mind, How about Monday during windshield time?

 

He sold it because of the CARB compliant laws in California. He would have to sold it sooner or later. That truck can NOT be registered in California 2020. He can tell you about that truck but he had a lot of extras added for performance. Turbo, exhaust manifold, air to air cooler, engine tune by Mike Fletcher, all comes to mind.

 

That is a great series of shots, particularly the CAT Yellow engine and everything on it.

Maybe the new C18 with it's 700 HP might find a place in trucking. Challenge would be emissions.

 

Normally the mods will lock a thread once a item sells. Or delete it.

 

Why do you care?

 

Also,in this case it helped me get info on my truck.I had the mans number on repair invoices, but did not want to cold call him an bug,just a respect thing.so it was cool to find my truck on here an reach out to him this way.If it was closed or deleted then i wouldn't have spoke with him.My 3 cents
