You'd better look in your damn mirrors instead of blaming the guy behind you for smoking the tires from fenders rubbing.
Tells ya he didn't do a pretrip at all or even looked over the truck before buying it
I was a kid in the 1970s and remember seeing all these cabovers on the Ohio Turnpike, on our drive to Cedar Point each year! Sweet truck!
Blaming his ignorance on someone else in perfect Bruce style. Where was your pre trip Bruce!
Because he always shows every second of everything he does he made a fuck up they had a joke no body got but hurt about it but you
“No wonder I kept smelling rubber smoke” probably would have been a good time to pull over and check it out
@@madmarty21 and yet you're the only one cussing and throwing a fit about it like a 2 yr old. SMFH 😒🙄🤦
I'm 47 years old I remember seeing those old cabovers running the roads all the time, seeing that one just brings back so many memories. When I grew up I wanted to drive a cab over but I never did, spent 20 years over the road and never drove a cab over, the oldest truck I ever drove was a 79 W900 with a 13 speed and a big cam Cummins
I ran a couple COEs one Freightliner and a KW new trucks, they dominated the roads in early 90s. Back before you could stretch them length restrictions. A dream parking and turning in tight places. One thing I thought about was head on crashes. I knew drivers that would walk if a company put them in a COE. The two I ran rode good. Had conventional trucks that rode worse. I worked for my Family company. I ran whatever truck my brother told me to run. I know for a fact drivers damaged the COEs intentionally, had to be careful who you hired. I liked the COEs been on little roads before GPS . I was so happy I wasn't driving a big conventional, that needed a football field to turn😊
Ask him why he didn’t do his pre-trip Ryan. Hold your ground, I think you can take him…😉😉😆😆
Has he ever done any kind of pre trip on any truck ?
Can’t blame Ryan for that one Bruce, operator is responsible for the rig. Sweet truck
Thanks for purchasing this from my Dad . Glad to add you and watch what you do with it !
What did he pay for it?..just curious
@@wilE6764 I doubt anyone is going to tell that.
Great looking truck!!!
He Bought this cab over out of my home town!
@@kylecarden6000 Where is that?
Always loved those old Semi Trucks, better then the ones we have in today's culture
I put power steering on my 1977 352. I used a power steering box from a Freightliner cab over. I made an adapter plate to bolt the box to the frame, so it looked nice in factory. Use the standard power steering pump and mounted the power steering reservoir in the back Behind the cab where the original would be
Now that's the rig style I grew up with. 👌😁👍
Starting to see these old trucks in beautiful shape on the 401 in Canada , the ones I’ve seen are absolutely beautiful , much much respect these brokers bringing these old trucks back to life
I'm old and these were new when I started running big loads. Good catch 😊
I had the same truck, and I do believe you have a 76 there, not a 78. It steers easy enough, you Do Not need power steering!! Great video, this retired old driver appreciates it. I drove from 1974 until 2004.
Yeah he later realized in the video its a 76
You should keep the stacks it looks better with the stacks
Nice old school Cabover
Theres a ole cabover pete thats always hualing cattle every day wherei live. Super gorgeous workhorses.
Back in the day, my Dad drove a Diamond Rio. Loved riding with him. Good memories.
I would keep the exhaust on that it has . And fresh paint. And definitely do those personal touches you listed .It’s definitely a sweet truck. Ryan is learning so don’t be to rough on him . He’s a good young man.
That truck is bad ass,when I was kid my uncle used to drive one just like that one
Nice truck, Bruce. I appreciate you sharing, buddy 👍
Congratulations, Bruce, on your purchase of a Cabover!
bruce is a fraud listen to the truth in his anger he's no respectable business owner he ran that tractor company in to the ground note in every new video he puts out all ways mentions his wife and kids but does not say high to his mom and dad threw the camera they threw him out for bankrupting the tractor company by buying up shit they didn't need like trucks he blew threw 10,000 on blue color cab over kzhead.info/sun/ftuohLx-a4NmnWg/bejne.html
That is a honey of a classic truck. Used to drive a cab over White. It had the same instant old time air con and a massive steering wheel. Watching in New Zealand.
Ryan, tell him if he’d done his pre-trip he should have seen the fender/tire issue.
That Truck is Awesome try not to overkill it w the Add ons Bruce love the Old school trucks !!! Take care Bud ....
For almost a 50 year old truck, it's a nice time capsule. 💪
Hi Aaron. I am father and son in joplin on the Harley springers. You were going to send photos. See you around
Glad to see a genuine smile on you bro💯 excited to see where this truck goes
In pieces sadly, like à all thr project he buy
@@lionelchartrand2829He loves peterbilt so probably not
@@ww2dogfighter1944 what i mean in pieces is that he's going to start dismentling it to put new part on it and just never finish it just like the whote scania
@@lionelchartrand2829 ok
This is going to make me and a lot of other people happy!👍👌 Looking forward to this content
Straight pipes all the way. Love this Pete absolute Classic and its clean!!!
Without Jake brakes, is there a real need for straight pipes? Afterall, it is a classic basically unmolested truck with a classic look.
Ryan’s brain is like an unused satellite, just up there floating in space😂
Lol
Hahaha.. Space Cadet hard at work!!
Very cool! The very 1st truck I drove was a 1992 Freightliner 712 Satellite. I love me some cab overs!
Wow that thing is awesome! Love the colors and just everything except the money deck! Put a dance pole on it! Haha
I drove a 1978 Pete just like HANK IN WASHINGTON for years great memories
That is a really nice Cabover Bruce. I hope you keep it. Good old trucks are hard to come by these days. Especially ones in mint condition like that one.👍
WOW your film guy is a few beers shy a case sits and films the mud guard digging into the tire LOL!! talk about not paying attention. I think that's a decrease in pay right there now you got to get him to clean the rubber off everything LOL!
At 14:30 minutes: Aah Ryan, Ryan, Ryan...😂 What are we gonna do with the boy Bruce, little oopsie😁👍🏽
Get with Rob at S H tube and get some custom stuff made for Hank. Like a custom deck plate and a custom light box.
Random question from someone not from USA. What was considered the best make of truck back in the 70,80,90s? I don't know much about them, but like Mack, Peterbilt, Freightliner, GMC, Kennworth, White etc? When they were like their own companies
Very cool . Can't wait for these upgrades. At least you can use the tires again.
Congratulations on the new rig. Looks like the Winnebago of Peterbilts, LOL. Ok Bruce, & The Cameraman Randy Savage,yall take it easy, have a good one and #StayFosty my friends.
I know of an transtar that was owned by a county here in Canada , with only a few thousand miles on , it was bought by tackaberry construction in Ontario , it’s now living its life under cover in a heated shop , it’s absolutely in mint condition , all original , it’s quite the sight
What a nice specimen! All that wood grain and Naugahyde in excellent shape. .
Name it, Waylon Jennings. The late 70's was his time. I'm sure he even rode in one of them old cabover Pete's
This truck is super clean,excellent condition wouldn’t mind owning it just love it🙏🏻👌💯❤️try n keep it as original as you can.
Forget the power steering. Leave the stacks alone. No pre trip It is a beautiful rig. Hard to believe it is so old. I would love to have it. Congratulations.
now that's a very cool looking truck , Bruce Wilson. i would keep the radio with the 8 track for sure you might meet a old retired trucker who used to work the truck that your in and it could be his last request to go for a drive in it, and give you some of it's secret's too.
Blaming Ryan... looks like a driver pre-check overlook to me!
What a nice cab over!! I like these longer videos personally. Can't wait to see the work get done
Do you remember JB hunt cab ove us when you opened up the door the steps came out and you walked right up in. I drove one of those for a while but I started out and your mom is still going to wait for a Mon. Th and when you saw me out of IPP at the hunt's point. New york I love it
Started right up. Nice
love the cabovers would love to drive one them again I drove many mile in one of them pete cabover too .but I would put power steering on it for sure
That thing is freaking awesome!
Oh good another project !
He will announce that this classic cabover Peterbilt will be for sale in 5...,4...,3...,2.... I am sure you get the idea!
wow, a rolling museum with some modern details.😁Nice
you should come up to the Large cars and Guitars truck show at the Smokies Stadium
In 1988 I drove a 1975 Pete, it had 400 Cummins, 13 speed , it had 4:33 rears. I think it was a 362 model. At 2100 it tops out at 65 mph, no power steering.
About time you got another cabover
Take very good carefully of that one because that's a classic cabover
Air ride the front end, full size 24’s on the rear, 22’s in the front, new box bumper and new stainless deck cover and rear bumper. 6” straight pipes and few other odd and ends and let the classicness shine 👌
Only buying for KZhead then will kill it and sell it. Well it's his thing
Like the international then airforce 1 international, the gmc, kw conventional, the red scania, the white scania, and then the black scanias been kicked to the kerb, blue collar got sold, not really a giveaway as it was a raffle, i hope this pete is safe,..
@@cabovermike go get a life
@@cabovermike Don't kid yourself. You know it won't be.
Almost like BJ & The Bear just go dude love it❤badass find Bruce ok guys have a great weekend later
I can perfectly imagine the guy driving this truck in the 80's. Marlboro red smokin with Hank Williams Jr. blaring on the radio banging gears talking dirty on the CB!
What a nice time capsule cab! Would be moderate with the changes so the outside still match the original inside. There is plenty of modern around, this feels more special and reminds of the simple old days..
SH Tube makes some killer light box set ups for the rear of the truck
Damn, what a mint Pete! Needs some work but doable. Also, how about a power operated cab lifter, like what Australian K220 cabovers have? It'll make lifting that cab easier.
About time. Keep the old cabovers coming. This rig is so badass
Csn someone say, convoy...😊 What a beautiful rig..
She looks great Bruce
Cool looking interior.
I like it. I reckon that just needs a polish & a mattress in the sleeper and keep it largely as it is. I remember when I was a kid seeing in the airport shop those clear epoxy resin toilet seats with money & barbed wire inside them, that dollar deck plate has style.
It looks so cool, love the colours too 😎 I would leave mufflers, because those look to be nice shape, exhaust done well and look good too.
You did'nt do your pretrip Driver. Dave
A touch of class.
On the right hand side cab cylinder there should be a latch that will catch when you get it far enough over.
Hey brother congrats on the new cab over that truck looks freaking awesome the interior looks like it’s brand new in joy it I know you guys are going to make that truck brand new but please don’t do burnouts in it 😂
I'm so excited
Double breathers new stacks get the seats covered to match the brown keep it simple with the glass lens lights
Nice truck ! Go easy on Ryan lol. He should have told you but I'm sure you noticed as well.. Most American LaFrance firetrucks where built here in hamburg ny . HQ out of SC. They shut down unfortunately but now E-ONE firetruck are made here.
Very nice. It is good seeing you so happy with your new project
Hi Bruce all the way from Yorkshire England nice truck old trucks have more style than new ones 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻one thing the old trucks been looked after nice in side cab. Bruce how many horses is the Cummings putting outf it's not broke don't fixs it
Straight pipes for sure 👍
Bruce you definitely need to keep this cab over because we all miss blue collar
Hey! That's the truck that peter built! Is what we used to say on the CB when one a them fancy new trucks went by..
Hey Bruce that is a sweet looking Cabover just put a set off new tyres on it and new set off air horns I really hope that you will keep this truck don't try too sell it and how in the heck did Ryan not see the smoke coming from the back wheels sack Ryan lol
I don't think any of them could have made it as a truck driver back in the sixties and seventies
You know the old saying: Old truckers never die. They just get a new Peterbuilt!
Nice example of 352. I purchased 352 new in 1974, steering wheel looks after market, speedometer is wrong, hope you can source a Peterbilt one somewhere. Mine was 1674 CAT, 13 speed , Pete 4 leaf. Price new was$26,600. Congrats on a good find!
Awesome cab overs, you should tell tim about that cab overs and the pete he is always looking for cab over spares
Bruce is back in the Cabover…👍
he's full of shit if he's so done why is back to buying projects and selling them? kzhead.info/sun/ftuohLx-a4NmnWg/bejne.html
Bruce! This is a show truck! Enjoy! 🙂
Awesome cab over Bruce this truck would make a cool heavy haul truck third axle on this one NO just kidding with ya classic looks wins every time
If Bruce is true to form, in about a week he will change everything on this truck. Take a good look at this truck. You will not see it the same.
I have seen that truck I go by that place all the time it's really cool
That is one handsome brute of a truck, I dont understand why you would want to change anything on these classic vehicles!! As for the cabover style, there are nothing but cabovers here in the UK and Europe, most of the roads we negotiated you needed a close coupled trailer with the axles set forward. You would never get a US style rig around narrow country lanes and densely packed city streets, so its horses for courses ! Apart from British trucks like the ERF that were fitted with 350bhp Big Cam Cummings that I loved, I have spent my 46 year commercial driving lifetime sat in a Volvo's F88 like the one in my Avatar from the late 1970's or or F10/12's and the later Volvo FH Globetrotters, or right up to my recent retirement in Scanias, the last one being one of the new generation type.
See my avtar, my 1976 f88, i always fancied an american truck, looked at loads over the years, in uk and usa, petes/kw's/whites/freightliners but non came close to the F88,.
& congratulations 🎉Bruce & ur stepping in high cotton now & good 4u 😮
That's one neat sweet Pete👍
Ryan appears to have no idea how life operates , let alone anything about a semi truck. God Bless him.. Maybe he'll come around in a few years..
Hank will get you over the hum to a million subscribers.
New horns and new cab lights and led headlights and a good cb radio
Hidden def tank we all know it got that maintenance free dpf 😂😂
The ol hidden def tank gimmick
Havent u noticed Brutus blows blacks smoke and is loud he made it “maintenance free” awhile back
