1987 Pete 'Classic 359' restored to original form

Diamond, Missouri-based Gerald Mock showed this impressive 1987 Peterbilt 359 at the 2023 Guilty By Association Truck Show in Joplin, Missouri. Mock's brother-in-law, Brantley Johnson, owns the truck and bought it after it had been sitting for 15-20 years, Mock said.
The truck is unique in that it's technically a "Classic 359," which was a numbered series of trucks sold in 1987 to commemorate the final year of the 359 model. This truck, however, isn't numbered and is what Mock said is considered an "extension truck." Even though it's not numbered, "it still made the Classic cut," Mock said.
Mock was involved in the rebuild process, which took about six months, he said. Johnson may use it occasionally to work, hooked to a grain hopper for his True Farms business in Richards, Missouri. But with the amount of work put into the rig, Mock said he was doubtful it would work too hard.
