It's really sad to see those beautiful old school Pete's just dying away,I wish I was rich,so i can buy couple of those Pete's,and bring them back to life and keep them in private collection
I agree I started driving semi trucks back in 1989 , 1st truck was a 1977 AutoCar. Then a 1981 Freightliner but when i sat in the seat of a 1984 Peterbilt 359 with a 3408 Cat.... I wish I had one of those trucks and bring it back to its former glory... the Corvette style dash .......... Awesome trucks
as a heavy diesel machanic the peterbilt and kenworth the classic ones are so beautiful and looks like they have a soul I have always loved working on older trucks even bulldogs the peterbilt are soul and beauty on the highway newer trucks are ugly looking for sure not built with heart
These are REAL trucks with class...not the plasticky, troublesome "wannabe" trucks they're building nowadays! I'm proud to say that I drove trucks in an era when trucks were still trucks and before the EPA and DOT took the last bit of joy out of trucking!
wow u guys with all the big dreams and $ should get ahold of me and show me the $ so i can get you some petes worth restoring! these are out there !they arent gold! tell me how much $ you really have to spend ? hit me up @ my channel so i can get your info! please no BS wanna be's! cash talks and i here a lot of sqaulk -show me a real icon i can click on and get your info then tell me what you want and show me a pic of your bank statement so i know your not a squaker! TRUTH
@@ramrod7227 yes they are cool but the guy thinks that they are Gold and wont sell any one of them SO ,im just saying these trucks are all over and forsale, they arent gold and there are 359 needle nose trucks in running condition right now 4 sale , im saying hit me up if you want one!:) dont stop dreaming but when a persons ready to stop dreaming and drop some real cold hard cash then let me know! if that makes me seem like i jerk sorry im actually willing to help a real guy who is serious to own one some day.
Trucking 101 no you make a valid point. I grew up around these old 359s and 379s. They are not worth their weight in gold. They are still a dime a dozen. It would be cool to resurrect these old trucks but I personally have no interest. I think it’s awesome that people do tho. Good for them
I know you got asked a lot. And might not be active or able to make the info "public" But I'm like 50 miles from San Antonio And will be in the market for a 359 Pete later on I'd love to know where these trucks are. Just to go look at them I want to eventually get an old 359 and restore it. As an owner operator truck. Preferably with an old 262 or 335 naturally aspirated Cummins With backdrop manifolds and 4" pipes And a 5x4 twin stick set up I'd more or less stay "leased" under a local company but driving my own truck....
I would go and buy the steering wheel and put it in a pickup or something, take some parts, or just try to fix her up. The inside is amazing! Poor Pete’s rotting away
The first two trucks you looked at were in surprisingly good condition. I'd put them probably early to mid 80s. Do you know if the owner would be interested in selling any of them?
Seeing this, I think about back in the 70's & 80's there was a rash of stolen 18 wheel dirt haulers where I lived. None ever recovered as far as I know. I can't help but wonder if they wound up deserted in a place like this. Also seems like this could have been a place to hide your trucks when the business went belly up and you didn't want the bank to come recover their stuff.
Sad reality is it costs a lot to keep these on the road. Some parts are hard to find, no one stocks parts for them, can't find drivers to drive old trucks, fuel mileage is less, DOT will hassle you more, and Company's want to hire new trucks. There not long hoods. If your going to put 20000 in one make it a long hood. I've owned several and still keep 2 on road. Just a labor of love. Oh and most were built when speed limits were 55 so gearing is wrong. How many drivers no what it's like to go 65 at 2100 RPM with solid fan hub. And better hope you don't get one with an 8V92. Save the best one let the others wait
Well parts are easy to find, but everything else you said is true, I used to drive the brown Pete always got hassled by DOT, but she was a runner her nickname was 3 digits
Hector Torres _I know what you mean, i keep telling my boss to do something with them but he never does, i feel just like all the people commenting sad that there rotting away.
For the most part, it doesn't appear as though it would take much to put those Petes back on the road. It seems that company simply junks their trucks when they reach a certain age, regardless of the condition
you better be a millionare when you see how much a trucker will charge you to load and haul this to your place . get your checkbook out boys! just the truth:)
Sad to see but I have a friend who has about 20 Brockway’s just sitting around he keeps them for parts for the three V12 he’s rebuilding! Maybe the same with this guy
chris m- Nope not this guy unfortunately, their just rotting away and he will not sale, I've asked him so many times, i convinced him to start the black and grey one like 6yrs ago but that's the farthest it went
yeah its sad i crush Brockways guys are all talk but i crush trucks for scrape cause i aint found one man 2 put his $ where his mouth is,i cant find a man to pay scrape price when the rate was good- just the truth boys! sadly the truth as ive always found it! prove me wrong! its called show me the money- any men out there! with cash;)
It's really sad to see those beautiful old school Pete's just dying away,I wish I was rich,so i can buy couple of those Pete's,and bring them back to life and keep them in private collection
Can i have one to than
I agree

Awesome trucks
What a waste. If I only had the money
Ikr, i have a peterbiltb 359 and its my favorite Peterbilt model
Those are neat old trucks. I would love to fix one up and put it back on the road.
I drove a few like these when they were almost new. (I was blessed to do so).These trucks have a long way to go to bring them back to original glory.
where are they located
Some of them probably just need a lil TLC and they be back on the road, better than any of the new garbage they making today with the emissions shit!
Oh man I bet these old beauties got some stories to tell.
Kendrick Salley oh yeah plenty of stories to tell about these 359s
anthony diaz Hey buddy I know you said they were in Texas but do you know how I can buy Atleast one of them☹️?
Lots of farts laid in those seats
Check out on UA-cam, Red Simpson's "Hello, I'm a Truck".
I would love to hear them if they could talk
as a heavy diesel machanic the peterbilt and kenworth the classic ones are so beautiful and looks like they have a soul I have always loved working on older trucks even bulldogs the peterbilt are soul and beauty on the highway newer trucks are ugly looking for sure not built with heart
That sad to see these classics just rotting away. Would love to purchase one or two of them

maverickdallas100 Got that right ! Ain’t nothing like a 359
What's great to know is that someone will eventually get these up and running again since they are so valuable

Trucking 101 idk why you feel the need to bust everyone’s balls who comments. These are cool old trucks man. People can dream. Stop being a dickhead.

Sad to see those Pete’s just sitting these dying!- I’d be tryin’ to restore at least one of those!🙂
Look like most of them could be saved.
*All
So many classics. Hope they can be rebuilt... Shame to let them rot.
There is a lot of interest in old trucks these day's, hope someone rescues these trucks, sucks to see them rotting away.
I think, these beautiful trucks are still restaurable.

Time for a cold start yeah baby
Joseph DiMele oh yeah

For the most part, it doesn't appear as though it would take much to put those Petes back on the road. It seems that company simply junks their trucks when they reach a certain age, regardless of the condition
And the company should be shot

Nice old Pete's there , looks like they need some TLC.

Cool video. Are any of those tractors for sale?

Where is this place at ..would love to visit this place and get in touch with whomever it need to be just to get one of this marvels back to life
Those trucks are also in an haunted road called Clinton Road
And they scare shit of people chasing
They're a pile of junk! I see stuff like that on the side of the roads every week.
Your comment is in the minority, one man's junk is another man's treasure
