So this was a fun episode … as I’m awaiting the gold wrap for #ProjectSnowman, I elected to take Littl by Little (my 359 Peterbilt) out to pick up that #ProjectSnowman replica trailer I found #OnTheHunt in episode 29. Now it’s not an exact replica but it’s a good start, kind of like the ’79 Kenworth I’m building up like the one used in the Smokey and The Bandit movie, not the exact year, but I’ll make it look as close as I can. So after getting LBL ready for the road, I headed out. The trip was ~150 miles to the old farm where I found it so it was a nice drive. When we got there, it surprisingly didn’t need a lot of work despite it’s age and how its been sitting since the 90’s. We hit the road and made it home w/o issue. Now I have another big project but it’s getting one step closer to the final setup - cant wait…
Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for all the comments, suggestions, and support!
Keep in mind, I know a little about a lot but not an expert in anything … just doing the best I can, learning as I go ... I do all my own stunts

Well twin sticks I can tell you this that was a good video I appreciate it your friend John from Las Vegas
I like the “this sticker adds 10hp” I will definitely need that now😂
Sure looks good on you..! Ever given any thought to maybe runnin few local moves to make ah extra ‘project money’?
Love it..!
Trying to sign up but it sticks in limbo and spins around and around and never completes purchase
Buggard if I could put up with that Jacobs like that Mark,,from Les in Aust.
Something about seeing LBL hooked up to that old trailer is smile worthy.
Right!?! I bet mark was the happiest man in the world. Well deserved too.
@@cheeseball247 agree sir
Did I just watch Mark drive his rig for 20 minutes?
Yes I did and I enjoyed every damn second 👌
I don’t know what was more enjoyable your content or the smile this journey put on your face 😎
There’s the “oooo yeah” that mark trademarked lol. Glad to see everything coming together for you
When you pulled that trailer out and that CAT starts to sing and roll coal, that was just SWEET!!!
Aweseome to see you really enjoy that moment, dragging the trailer behind Little by Little! That smile says it all.
That trailer is such a great find. Watching you drive little by little is a hoot, you definitely are Mr. Twin Sticks.
Looked and sounded amazing!! So good to see her pulling a trailer. She sounds fantastic, as old truck should sound and it put a big smile on my face. Best video you done since you first had her on the road. Loved it
The look on your face when you got it hooked up and rolling,Happier than a pig in slop😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Hey Mark great to see you pulling with little by little. Be cool if you could find a older lowboy or low deck for little by little for when you get your projects or want to take two trucks to a show. Keep trucking God bless 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
If you want to run an air line for air tools and you don't have an extra port on your air tank, or can't hook it up that way for whatever reason... Air hose with the fitting for tools on one end and a gladhand connection on the other. Hook it up to the trailer supply line and open the valve, there you go! I found it handy for airing up tires or using a blow gun to blow the dirt out of the cab!
Paid actor T-Shirt was hilarious!!! LBL Looking good. I’m excited to see Snowman done.
Boy the little boy in you has a lot of fun. I sure envy you for your dedication and determination. Great job!
He bb
Congrats Mark for finding your Snowman Trailer. It will make an impressive display. I noticed you have "E Track" at the back of the trailer. You could make a removable fake wall of Coors secured to a couple load bars attached to the E track.
I think every truck/car guy knows the level of happiness and absolute glee when you finally get somethin running right and look at it in the rear view mirror. Few things come close.
Should have called this one Watch Mark smile! Great content as usual.
Watching you grin like a Cheshire Cat the whole time makes all the work worth it! Super happy for ya Mark! And Lil by Lil sounds fanfriggintabulous! American Music brother to the ears😎
Mint!
So happy for you, been watching this since the start and that feeling of driving it down the road pulling a trailer must be unreal. Great work!
I could listen to LBL sing all day long up through the gears with the turbo too! Be even better in the cab riding along!
Ain't nothin like a caterpillar engine. Love the smiles. Really want a K100 to just cruise like that. Keep it up son
As much as I love the sound of those jakes (and I do!), I would like to see you demonstrate the brakesaver at some point as well. It's a fascinating system, and the fact that you have both at your disposal means LBL is just that much more badass. Awesome to see that old trailer on the road again as well.
Those stacks are playing my favorite song!
Thanks for sharing your passion and dreams with us!❤
Mark there is a possibilty your (LBL) slack adjusters were installed on the wrong sides. Yours is the first time I've ever seen, a slack adjuster mounted with, the adjuster nut between the chamber and slack adjuster. Take a look at your's and other equipment.
Its all about the smiles per gallon my friend ....ain't nothing as sweet as a flat top pete !!
Oh man that old girl motors well, awesome to see you got a trailer for Snowman.
I know its been a while since I commented but rest assured Ive watched every episode. Keep on truckin Mark.
Well that’s a first, when you hit the train horns you about scared the soul out of my dog laying in front of the TV lol. Great content Mark.
Couldn't wipe the smile off your face no how. Great video. Thanks
Thats an awesome part of the journey....thanks for bringing us all along...Thanks for keeping it lite!!!!
I wake up every morning....with a big smile in my face 😂Yeah, the Pete sounds good! I learned so much about old trucks here...outstanding. Thanks a lot for that, Mark! The neighborhood will think you change the job now. 🤣 And now a trailer and after that the Trans Am? Regards from Munich/Germany 👍 MAN is the company next where I work...btw.
Mount an AC on the front of the trailer under the Thermo King shell so when you're sitting in the trailer drinking Coors you can have air conditioning.
So cool!!!! Thanks for sharing the trip, awesome truck!!!!
Your smilin' from ear to ear!!👍🏻
I found this channel my rookie year otr in 2019 and it's crazy to see how far along LBL and everything has come. Respect
I really like all your videos. But I think this is my current favorite episode. You taking out LBL and taking her for a longer haul with your snowman trailer, and hauling Coors! With the smile on your face enjoying your hard work, it just doesn't get any better. Thanks Mark.
Really good to see you smiling like that. Nice job!
Cant help but love your excitement for the trailer/truck combo and I completely understand it..Good on you 👍🏻
Just as a trick for the air hose is get a glad hand than you hook you air hose to your teailer red hose than push your trailer brake button to get air. Problem with fitting down on tank is they tend to rust up
yeah i would've thought he would have just bought one of those deals they sell at truck stops to air up tires from the glad hands
This day has been a long time coming! I remember subscribing a couple years ago when you first started your channel! Thanks for taking us along Mark.
Great video, thanks for the ride.:)
Surprised that you didn't give it a little 'safety tug' before you hooked up the air and raised the landing gear. Going to be a good replica when it's finished!
We did … just off camera 👍
Hey Mark. I have a suggestion it comes to paint. Maybe you can paint the hood, cab and roof blue ,but keep the fenders white. I would like to hear what you think of that colour combination, for Little by Little. Once again thanks for making my Thursday’s enjoyable.
Na mucho no good
I’ve grown attached to the white and blue as well 😂 maybe some white graphics would do the trick
Glad to see your trucks on the road some and especially with a trailer.
Lovely video, and great seeing your big smile picking up that trailer.. Thanks Mark.
Why does Mark do everything by himself doesn't he have any friends 🤣😂😆
Confused…he had someone with him in this video..
Are trans ams really that much on that side of the pond!, some go for around £20,000 here in the uk. I guess they're not as desirable here but goodness knows why. I found one signed by Burt Reynolds himself and that was going for £90,000
Another great video Mark, can't wait to see the trailer all done and with the tractor. Glad to see you enjoying all your hard work with LBL as well. Keep up the work!
thanks for the ride along Mark I loved it LBL sounds and rides great 👍
Beautiful, just Beautiful... What gr8 fun.
Don't worry about toggling the jake-brake all the time. I started out on an old Mac hauling water, and it was religion working that toggle so you wouln't stall out. First truck though I learned to shift and jake in reverse haha. Boy she sounds good pulling a load and happy as a Cat doing it. The old Pete needed it's day again. Just like any old prized fighter, bow legged seaman or old blue collared guy out there; we just want that chance to prove to ourselves we can still do what we're meant to be doing. There's purpose to that. Thanks for the ride along and your paid actors for helping out :)
"Paid Actor" shirt was perfect!
Another great episode Mark, thankyou.
Thanx for getting us out of the house .very enjoyable drive
That was great! Thanks! It’s gonna be fun watching the progress on the trailer. See you next week.

I can't remember the last time that a UA-cam video made me smile this much. Great entertainment for all of us old truck lovers.

Thank you Mark for sharing this,LBL was sounding sweet going though the gears and jaking. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
