So this is it, I believe I’ve finally found the perfect candidate to build a Pork Chop Express replica truck that’s coming up for sale at the upcoming auction so I invited my friends Dallas and Peg to help me give it the once over and see if it’s worth buying - Enjoy!

Hey Mark. Nice job finding the exact truck model from BIG Trouble in Little China. You DEFINITELY ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY buy her and transform her into The PORKCHOP EXPRESS. Please and Thank you.
@@TwinStix How much did it end up selling it for? Did Dallas have any problem towing it home for you or did peg just go for it and drive it?
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj He definitely purchased it, that is why the video abruptly ends.
PLEASE BUY THIS!!!!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS BUILD!!!!
@@buckeyenation7322 I Agree with you. Mark must buy this truck and turn it into The Porkchop Express.
Mark you have to restore a old mack as the rubber duck one day
Amen to that!
Yep
Shit I’ve been saying that for a year that’s the most underrated movie I liked it better than Smokey and the bandit gotta love ol dirty lyle
That'll be amazing 👏🏾
there was a UA-cam channel out of BC "Back Yard Tank Show"(been quiet a couple years) They had a RS700L with the correct sleeper sitting in their tree line ... video 3 years ago " New Project Revealed " no the Mack isnt the project , just in the way
An on the hunt with Peg's help is a minty day!
Peg and Twin Sticks at the auction yard. Excellent start to the morning!
What us the name of his channel?
@@christophermgwadira4400 Zip Ties N Bias Plies
Has he ever showed hisbface
9:20 Peg pulled off that “Black Dog” Eaton Fuller Pro Shift reference so well😂
In 1979, I was lucky enough to buy a 1978 freightliner similar to that one. It had a 36" sit in bunk. 400 Cummins, 13 spd with 370 rears on freightliner air rude. It was brown with buckskin interior. Twin chrome cans and exhaust the fuel tank were set back and battery and tool boxes under the door. WOW. Talk about a flash back looking at the truck sure brought a flood of memories
Them 3 together makes the ultimate episode 😂
Mornin Mark, I think Mrs. Twin stix should get her own channel so we can hear what she says every time you buy another truck, that would be some good listening. I agree with you guys that truck is pretty close to the Pork chop express and it is not to far gone to fix, and the running C block is a super bonus, and It's gonna look damn good sittin with the other three. Have a great week my friend say hello to Mrs. Twin stix for us.
@@spottedhoss1920 You wouldn't hear anything, it would be one lone bleep followed by get out.
Buy it mark!!! Awesome project and I can see it will be amazing after it’s done
pretty obvious he did
The three amigos on the goof on what looks like a nice summer day, nice.
Hello Mark, I’m excited to see next weeks video to see if you come home with the “Pork Chop Express” that is a great movie and that truck would be a great addition to your collection!! Thursdays are always great, can’t wait for your videos!!
Hi Mark this is Ken Holloway the retired Trimac driver boy that’s a cool old freight shaker that’s all we had as company trucks all of them were mostly day cabs.l drove those for 25 years of my 30 years of work then we started to get Kenworth those 120 models where the warmest and the best to drive in winter, everybody else would have frosted up windows. When we got those kenworths
I really missed those freightliners. I don’t have to many pictures back then we never thought of taking a lot them but I do have a few l will see if I can find the ones I have and I’ll try to send you some pics and email you well I guess that’s all for now.
Please do Ken - thanks! twinstickgarage@gmail.com
Long live the Pork Chop Express Mark, looks like another fun project in your future.
I really enjoyed seeing the other guys on the channel. I really hope this truck finds it's way to your shop, it'll be a real good project!!
Morning Twinsticks garage family....and friends....y'all had one heck of a time there at the auction yard ....it's nice to see happiness amongst people...that's a rarity these days....I have a feeling that ole twinsticks garage will be around for a long...long. Time ❤️✝️🇨🇦🇺🇸✝️❤️😎
Hey Mark. Great score on finding the exact kind of FREIGHTLINER like the Porkchop Express from Big Trouble in Little CHINA. You DEFINITELY ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY buy this lovely truck and turn it into the truck from the movie. Please and Thank you.
Finally!!! Its like a said to my last wife. I said honey i never drive faster than i can see, besides that its all in the reflexes.
Buy it! Buy it!!
pretty obvious he did
He has definitely bought that already.
Hi Mark & Mrs. Twin Stick Garage & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Mark & Mrs.Twin Stick Garage & Friends Randy
Awesome! Great to hear you again Mark!
Mark Dallas and ol pega leggin what a treat the ol shaker has potential bud
In my opinion, that is the most funny on the hunt you've had
When Peg squeezed your hand onto the shifter knob, I knew it was special, like a seen from Ghost 😅
😂
Now you're giving new ideas!
I could listen to these 3 all day
Looks like the Trimmacs we used to get in that hauled flour for the bakeries in Ontario. Grab it Mark, And maybe a Mack for the Rubber Duck, A cab over Pete and a Jimmy, you know, for haulin' hogs..............
Can't wait to see this one get restored I think ol jack Burton would be proud
Mark i really love all the replicas but at the same time mrs twinstix is gonna kill ya she said "no more trucks you get three bays for them" 😂😂😂 but it would be nice to see three beautiful replica trucks sitting side by side.
Hey Mark you have to buy that! Don’t worry about shed space you can always build a bigger shop…. And tell the missus if you don’t buy it I’ll unsubscribe 😉😂
Dear dieseldownunder
👍👌👏😁😁😁 With such a threat she simply must give up her resistance!
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
This video is much different than any other on the hunt video and Dallas went with him so I am will to bet he bought it.
Man the wife must really love you, tell her you need another three bay shed and get two more!
I can’t believe what she allows! She’s a dream!
I would pay money to watch Peg Dallas and Twinsticks drive team cross country!
The cat piss express 😂😂
That’s funny right there!
Nice '88--'89 Grand Marquis there, LOL
Peg’s new whip 😂
@@TwinStix thought I replied earlier, maybe it got removed (reference to a forum I'm on for Peg 🤷, I'll leave it out) or I never hit send.
I have an '89 Colony Park (the project car, it's rough), '91 Grand Marquis (retired daily, it's rough), and a '98 Grand Marquis (new daily for the past 4.5 years, it's in pretty good shape.)
Anyway, neat that you finally found a Pork Chop Express candidate with the right bunk even.
@@TwinStix the way you guys geek out over the truck is kind of how I'm with those box panthers. I can tell you tons about them.
Did you at least get to ride in the car?
Looking forward to finding out if you bought the truck or not.
the side air vents are still there, you guys are goldend and get a wide bass cup all good,
He's not wrong about the dash & everything . My gramps had a classic xl as I was growing up and it all looks pretty much the same besides the windshield obviously. I'm excited for this one if you actually got it. I think it would be kinda cool for someone to make a replica of the pork chop express and actually go haul pigs with it.
P.S a fun fact I just learned recently is that the pork chop express also appeared in the 2018 movie "ready player one" as a obstacle in one of the races.
The big 3 Canadian UA-camrs coming together for a TwinSticks vidya at the auction yerd - Mint 👌
This will be my favorite build you do if you end up with it
😊always grateful
That truck is a beast
When you finally get a 379 you have to build the Black Dog truck.
I was thinking that
You are a cool guy. I love your videos and I love all your trucks. I’m from Winston-Salem North Carolina. Keep those videos coming and I’ll keep watching it.
Yesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!!!!!
LOL, I learned some new phrases today like brand used, pre-enjoyed & pisseyes of oil pressure! You are the last chance for this old Fright-Liner to live on into the future!😎
You need to be watch Peg's channel lol. Zip ties and bias plies
Nice shaker hope you get it!
Love the FLC’s. My dad had a couple when I was a kid. An 85 and 87
The engine sounds good. Should be an aluminum cab, I think. I prefer the older version of the Freightliner conventional with the double headlights bracket like the Peterbilts have. Actually ran one once in 1981/2 for a while.
First again!
That Freightshaker needs a bit of work, but it does have a big, walk-in sleeper and that might be really important. Considering Duke is stripped down, Little-By-Little is disassembled, and Snowman has a 36 inch crawl through the window sleeper, you will need that big walk in, smells like rat pi$$ sleeper when Mrs. Twinsticks makes you sleep outside because you bought another project.
@@stansdds He has the RV for those occasions, he has a sign on the door that reads "Dads Pad When Moms Mad"
@@ChrisHarding-lk3jj LOL!!!!!
Hey Mark, if you don't do the pork chop express, you could also do yellow bird from Christmas comes to Willow Creek
Good 🌞 Morning Mark!! You got to buy the Pork Chops Express. Dallas can repair the metal work. Lol 👍👍
like the movie mania that is the hallmark of your channel enjoyed the smokie and bandit builds, and now porkchop
Pork Chop Express!! Love Jack Burton!! I’ve been waiting for someone to it
looking forward to you making the pork chop express
That would be so cool if you buy that truck make it like in the movie bring it back to life and I hope it's got 273 gears in it and if it does hook up with the trailer and put the hammer down and haul ass
Pure enjoyment watching this while drawing up dash panels on Fusion 360 for my ‘83! I’m going to warn you though, they’re not like a Peterbilt or Kenworth. Off the shelf parts are scarce. Luckily they share parts with an FLD and Classic.
I remember when Peg would show his face on camera. Good old days.
I thought Jack Burton was so cool as a boy. I'm 42 now and my mind never changed. 😂
Looks fun . I love that motor. I have ran one for the last 22 years. It’s awesome.
I built that trruck from the bottum up when i was a kid in Scandinavia. it was dark brown with all the right stickers and some yellow pinstripe maybe. The only thin that made me remember this 40 yrs later is the VERY VERY square blinkers. nice truck. i paid like 40$ for that box of parts to glue it together.
Best episode in ages
some cleanup, little dash reorganizing, a paintjob and shell be mint
Kim Cattrall was gorgeous...😮
my dream truck is a 1979 Freightliner FLC120, 8V92 Detroit Diesel, and an 18 speed transmission.
You need it mark, definitely snatch it up
As soon as I heard Peg and saw that other guy I knew it was now an adventure.
This truck was on a farm sale in the area last summer,I picked up a tractor there talked to the farmer he was selling out and renting his land that’s why he sold it said it was a good truck then.
Great watching again
I bet they were glad to see you come along. They probably thought they would never sell it...
Well at least you got a really nice Cat engine and an Alpine headunit out of the deal LOL.
I actually drove one of those back in the day, but it didn't have one of those big goofy lookin sleepers on it.
It was only a couple years old at the time. It was alright but it was like most Freightliners, and when it got
about 500 miles on it LOL it started rattling, had air coming in around the door, and the dash a/c vents started
falling apart.
Oh no lol Marks gonna need a bigger shop!!! Make room for the Porkchop Express!!!
Yep it all matches up with my 94 cabover!! Except the smell!
Very cool Mark it definitely has potential
Gota wait till next Thursday! Nooooooooo. Hangin.Cool truck.
Come on Mark , you really want that truck from Dual and the tanker. 1955 Peterbilt 281.
The Duel truck would be extremely difficult to replicate. Brad Wilke has it currently.
Can't wait for this one. I love the movie, and lived in Visalia for years.
Excellent we're going to have the pork chop express
I liked the moving on truck.
Way to go Mark Twinsticks great episode
Putting peg in the back with the rat piss… minty!😂
I'd always wanted to do the autocar from over the top
Good luck finding some old chrome breathers they’re hard to come by for a good deal
Mark I noticed that you are driving the old crown victoria I really do like the older rides
Haha no not mine that’s Peg’s new whip
I wish I could ever have as much fun as you guys had that day. lmao
Any day spent with @single_drive and @ziptiesnbiasplies is a good day👌
I never drive faster than I can see... Besides that, it's all in the reflexes.
Old Briggs & Stratton keys use to work on them
Love that truck buddy
Just can't help yourself. Been a long time since I watched Big Trouble. Great truck for it, let us know if you snag it.
Everyone ... step aside on Auction Day, when this one comes up.. JUST LET HIM HAVE IT. Nuf Said..
It's perfect for you to get your hands on mark, she'd have a happy home with your fleat
You seriously need to buy this truck and restore!! Its our generation of Big Rigging!! Dude please! I bet if you did a “go fund” truckers of x gen & others would SO contribute!!
You must do “pork chop express’!! Then BJ and the bear!!
Hey Mark, I would pay to see LBL to get finished. I’ve been on this channel before you started the Kenny. Just my thought. Pete needs to get the love.
Paint before the snow flies - I promise 😉
@@TwinStix 3406 in this truck?
@@rudycarlson8245 yeah … minty C block👌
@@TwinStix thought so !did you pull the trigger on it?
@@rudycarlson8245- 🤐
Awesome!!!!! Zip ties!!! Aka pegleg!!
Next he’ll be looking for another A model kw from the show movin on. 😂😂😂
7:28 Dude! A Realistic CB? I have one of those in my 88 FLC! A Realistic TRC-419. Love that thing.
The cupholder is for a ceramic coffee cup like you use in a house, not for when driving, heh.
The b model did have available factory cruise control, but only if it was a PEEC engine. Contrary to popular belief, the electronic PEEC engines started with prefix 8tc b model. My first truck had one factory and it still works. Kinda nice having an 89 with factory cruise control, heh.
Freightliner did indeed cover the FLC with rivets.
He is correct, the FLC and FLD were largely unchanged in many ways in regards to cab and interior. There were some differences over the years, but not many.
That truck was the deal back in the day. Rough riding as hell. But they sure look good fixed up.
Here we go again.😁
Right now they showing smokey and the bandit on Norwegian tv on mye 60 birthday. I've seen it before,but after i have started to follow Twin Stick garage i'm loocking at the detail's on the truck and trailer, it must be a kind of a TSG distanse.But i love it😊😂😮
Lol two of my favorite Canadians 👌 pegs a legend
Had the same truck and 88 15 speed 425 cat same neway air loved that truck the windshields where 24 dollers back then
Did you buy that 88 freightliner
Get it
My favorite rig!!
Awesome video guys !!! just subscribed love it !!
Haha, PORKCHOP EXPRESS! 👍
