    What a gorgeous replica! B.J. and the Bear came out when I was a little kid, and my Dad was driving trucks. This paint scheme on a cabover is as close to my heart as the Dukes of Hazard's Charger paint scheme!
    I'm glad this truck is in the hands of someone who really loves it and takes care of it. Soon there won't be anyone left who remembers the T.V. show, and why cabovers were developed in the first place.

      I finally asked Bob the history of his truck and then Miss Flatbed Red is videoing the truck and trailer. He was telling me the story and I wanted everyone to hear it. Bob and Jacob are great people to talk with all the time. I'm glad to have met them both and look forward to seeing them in the future!

    I was lucky to see and get video of that truck at the 2011 Truckin' For Kids Show in Irwindale, California when it was still with Ownby Trucking. Looking back at it now, my video is very "non-HD" and unimpressive. I'm glad to see that you got really nice coverage of it, and you got a good interview to go along with it to tell the story. I'm happy the story of this truck will continue with a loving and caring owner.

Bob, y’all done a excellent job on your truck looking pretty 🤩 and smooth all over on the truck and trailer. I’d seen your other videos about your truck and was impressed with them. Hopefully I’ll be able to meet y’all somewhere up the road someday. God bless you and your family. Take care.

    I saw this truck 12 years ago, in the S.F. Bay area, at a warehouse: at that time the side panels on the trailer were still white. I chatted with the owner, and asked if I could take a pic of it, and he opened up his briefcase and handed me a pic, which I still have! (And just looked at)
    Always wondered whatever happened to it: glad to see it's still out there.

Both trucks had no trailers in a parking lot for a photo shoot or TV show/movie. Not sure if this was the truck or not, but looks very similar...

    Being a foreigner, how would it be possible to visit and see this lovely truck?
    (they could make a truck or hollywood 2 museum), it would be a success...
    the most famous truck in the world and probably one of the most beautiful
    I was disappointed when they did an international tour of the Hollywood cars show,
    I thought it would be this beauty, but this truck is 1000 better than the one in the series
