New truck
 

So I finally bought myself a truck. I am now the proud owner of a 1997 Peterbilt 379-127. :jump:

Specs:

• Engine: Caterpillar 3406E
• Transmission: 13-speed Eaton-Fuller Roadranger
• Wheelbase: 260"
• Wheels: 24.5"
• Interior: American Class
• Sleeper: Unibilt midroof
• Hood: 127" (longnose bay-bee)

Whoever said money can't buy happiness obviously never tried buying a Pete! :choochoo:

:pics:


Sounds like ya got a nice nice truck. What do ya do with it? Independant, leased, what kinda wagon do ya pull?

:pca1:

I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow. I'm turning it into a show truck; I have non-commercial registration/insurance on it, so I can't really pull anything.

Pics!
 

It took me longer than planned, but here are the pics of my new toy :U:

SLick looking truck. it needs a flatop sleeper and a set of 8inch bulhaulers with no muffs

nice lookin truck lil elbo grease and cleaner to get that crome jumpin and clean what do you haul

:U: bigger stacks, smaller sleeper, and extend the frame and you'll be in there:choochoo:

Nice truck :U:

I won't be hauling anything with it; I bought it as a show truck. Straight pipes definitely need to happen, I'm trying to figure out if I can get a side pipe setup to look good. That may prove difficult, though, so I may stick to stacks.

Sleeper stays. Flattops look good, but I like having some room in my sleeper. :)
