I love that ride, I would keep it all original myself. It would be a pleasure to drive a classic ride like that 👍
Old skool cool!
Good looking cabover. Great to hear he honor the previous owner and seeing himself as a caretaker. Great attitude sir. Wish you all the best. Greets from the Netherlands
I Definitely hear a V12 Detroit in the background as you start, and throughout the interview..... Ahhhhh, Such a sweet sound, the best of the best.
Wow his truck is clean n very sharp! I really appreciate the condition it’s in!… 👍🏽
That is one sweet Pete, it's Perfect. I haven't driven to many Cats but i love to own this one! I was the 2nd owner of a 1967 Pete conventional walk in Mercury sleeper big cam 3 5X4 it was stolen!
Rode with my Dad in a 72 cab over Pete for years as a kid. He hated the truck and ended up getting a 68 Kenworth conventional. Wish we still had them both!
Both real good trucks if specced out properly
Very nice!
Love how he looks as is as "I'm just the caretaker!" that's so awesome. Plus just my opinion, Original untouched trucks like this are yes not only rare survivors but the best ones... show trucks are cool and all but only if they where Born that way. This ones a true worker.
Hats off to this guy for leaving this masterpiece uncut!!!!! That is one sweet rig!!!!!
John South lived just north of my home in lime Springs Ia. You always knew when that truck was going by the house it literally would rattle the windows on the house. The story about the stack is 💯 true cause John told my the same story about passing cali emissions.
If you hang more on John South let's hear it. Too Cool
That is one rough ride. I remember driving those in the 1970s. Talk about jarring your teeth.
Very cool
Very cool Pete Cabover!!!!!! 👍👍👍 Always enjoy seeing them. 🙂
6x4 spicer in a cabover. hell yeah
I could literally smell it as soon as you opened the door what a great smell of history Love it. Definitely keep it original driv'ah
Oh yea, I agree!!!!
Really nice Peterbilt 352, that
Shade of green is great! They
did a good job restoring this
352.
REALLY LIKE THE FACT THAT IT HAS A 1693 CAT MOTOR TURBOED AND AFTERCOOLED I'M ASSUMING 5AND FOUR TWO STICK DROVE SEVERAL QUITE SOME TIME AGO SOME WOULD RUN LIKE CRAZY AND SOME THAT DID'NT. ONE VERY LARGE AND HEAVY HEAD. AND WOULD CACKLE LIKE CRAZY AND SMOKE BLACK SMOKE BUT YOU COULD CONTROL THAT WITH THE THROTTLE.
She's a beauty👍
Real cool interview. Glad Barry showed respect to John South and didn't stretch it out. That was a Massive truck in 1968. Think about how many guys got their doors blown off by "John South". Damn I thought Greyhounds were fast
CLASS PAYS , BEAUTIFUL TRUCK 👍👍👍👍
That truck is nice I like seeing video on those trucks, I have a 83 362 and I’m the process of getting a 73 352 from original owner, when I was a kid my dad had a w1000 ford and there hard to find any more to 👍
The fords without aluminum cabs went away early.
Great truck. As long as everything still works, it is so cool to have it be original. I wouldn't modify it.
I wish he would of started it up so we all could hear that whine, clatter, and wheez!
I drove one similar to this in the mid 70s. Pulled a food grade tanker with it !!!
Wow!..Great Truck, 5 and a 4..355,...rare
Love the Unilite 352's. I saw this one in the background of one of your other videos and was hoping you got some close ups of it. Nice truck!
First time, as a young teen, I got to experience life on the road was in a purple cab over pete, 425 cat 13 speed 411 gears, I can still hear the whistle of the turbo.
Very cool old 68!
I know that truck and Barry, I live just south of him in Traer. Nice truck!
that's a cool, smart truck. 😎
That’s a nice old Pete Cabover.
A 1693 with a 5 & 4, 355’s, yea buddy that will get it up over the top, & then some, come on!
B C FRY didn't have shit on JOHN SOUTH !
That is a magnificent piece of history right there! That Pete is Sick!!!!!!! I'd drive it with no AC or heat.... Lol!
Im really glad that he decided to leave the Old Peterbilt as close to original as possibly. I.like the cabovers that have had some new era things on them but i like the way they came out of the factory best
Very Cool old Pete! Thanks to Barry for keeping it orignal
I owned a sixty eight Pete. Had 318 Detroit. Only thing I didn’t like about it. Stacks were cut into back corners of cab. And didn’t care for Detroit diesel. It was old when I bought it. Beautiful truck you got there. Looks like new.
What a gem 💎 awesome 👏
Who is John South ?
Met him many a time bouncing down HWY 9
Had one just like it👍
One sweet pete
Looks great
I would marry that truck😍
Good comment
Cool ol girl😎😎😎
