I was going thru some old boxes in the attic recently and came across magazines I had stored from about 1985 to 1989. It was fun to recall the old days of sore kidneys, coffin sleepers, and no reliable A/C in a truck....for those of us old enough to remember. Anyways, I came across an article I had flagged of the very last 359 built as a 1987 model. It was yellow with a 36" bunk and delivered from Denton to Gary, Indiana. I wonder if anyone kows the whereabouts of that truck today...
The very first truck and the one at the 29 second mark are actually the same truck after he had her repainted. Matt Buckwalter from Ephrata, PA is the owner / operator.
He is an old school trucker, and initially resurrected 'The Dirty Bizness' from the junkyard and rebuilt her from the ground up.
I love Peterbilt trucks!!!! I think they're one of the best Trucks out there today, plus they just look so AWESOME, powerful, and Epic! None the less I have always loved 18-wheelers ever since I was a little girl, they're Kings of the Highway! Even though I want to become an artist (either for Animated Movies or Video Games), one of my other dreams was to be a Trucker, or to get to ride in one, or AT LEAST to get to sit in cab of a Semi. Anyway, SWEET video! Keep up the great work!
At the 35 sec. mark, this Pete pulling the Aqua Glass drop deck was my truck I beieve, the sad part is that it burned up in Ocala Florida with a brand new Cummins motor in it. I miss her!! Good to see her again Oh by the way, this is my daughters screename!
Dang 379 I just had to watch this vid again. You just brought me back to reality. I am gonna have to go buy one now. I miss my 359...I will have one again. take care and keep it between the ditches
Brings back memories 379 thanks...ain't nothing like a 359!!!! I used to have one '85 359 400 big cam IV (7shims in the pump)with a 13 over and would tach 2650rpm, Now that was flying. 6 inch straights (up the sides) and a 36 inch coffin bunk...Damn I miss her.
I would gladly give up all my creature comforts and spacious living quarters in the big plastic mobile home they call a volvo, to have one of these REAL TRUCKS! NICE, now that is Truckin
Yet again great job mate!u put alot thought and work into your clips.Good luck with your job :).Yea Petes are my fav trucks!Dont se alot down here in New Zealand lots of KW'S and Macks.bsafe
Wow, only 9 Petes with the Unilite cab, very annoying.

The Pete 359 at 1:10 is actually a 1974, so the text on the picture is wrong. For proof, check the side of the hood.
