Man, that guy must have done some cow haulin or tanker yankin because he's one smooth driver. Definitely old school. Cool truck. Great video. Horn works.
Sitting at home with snow ever were unable to get jobs done feeling down and see this pop make me feel like I am going to have a good day well done and keep up the good work from the falkland islands 🇫🇰
This could start a long conversation and feel this inst the place for it. But I will say I am proud to be British and have full respect for the the troops in 82 being that is was 40yr ago. For all involved that liberated us in 82 to the love ones they left behind. For all they done for us 40yrs ago. We will always be in debt to them.
I think one of the best things about these two builds is that you took them to your local parade. We need more involvement in our local communities and Rich, you are being a great example for others to follow. Thank you!
"Standing Slow Clap" Beautiful!! Brought a tear to my eye. We ran over a million miles in the same truck hauling furniture across North America. Truly a special project I hope it hauls every day for ya!!! Peace Boss and Crew
I have a very soft spot for older K100's and 350 cummins redheads, put lots of miles on one eventually giving her a birthday with a big cam kit back in the day and she never let me down. Love this build!
Not sure what I expected when you started this truck. I knew it would be cool. But you have exceeded my imagination by a lot. It is simply beautiful Rich. Mad respect. I never tire of your content. Best regards from Indiana.
It's great to see you showing off your hard work, Rich. You must be so incredibly proud of this truck, it's been a labor of love and taken a lot of ingenuity and willpower to get it from a rotting hulk in a farmer's field to this showpiece in a parade pulling your own tank. I'm always such a big fan of what you're doing, and I love that Vince was a part of the parade too - I know this project would never have happened without him either, especially that amazing exhaust/intake rack.
Hangin' around Phil so much you got a gravelly voice. Phil's a great guy, helped you guys out a ton in this build. Awesome job by the guys on the interior refresh. Still details to do to make it great but, lookin' beauty.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this series of you building this Kenworth K100. You are a hell'uva fabricator, and a skillful mechanic Rich. Thanks for putting out videos, your channel is one of my favorite to watch on RUclips.
Thank you so much for restoration of those classic cab overs. Especially the (KW) the two young men, doing the details, what great young men. There work A+, especially when you look at it before and after. The joy the kids must have seen with that (Tracked) PU/Tank truck haul you showed off. That's why I did a Restoration on my 71 SeaGrave with 8-71 Detroit/5 speed. The Kids Love sitting in drivers seat. Making siren noses. Lots of parents ask me " Wow it's a manual transmission" young parents don't realize there was a time when all Firefighting Rigs had Manuals. Your attention to details is the best. I hooked up a Electric Horn to my steering wheel, so the Horn blows even with no AIR pressure built up for Air horn. It's so easy getting behind gages on older Fire Rigs. But boy what a maze of wires, there was duel everything Plus the wires where double for Horn/Siren switch's for steering wheel. It actually overheated the wires at button on horn, being it controlled the big Federal Q Siren. It had been Jerry rigged when I bought Engine. They had this big disconnect switch just hanging under Dash. They ran too small of wire size to horn button, someone after FD had surplus Engine wiring up a Electric connection with undersized wires. There was lots of corroded wires at connection, RUST ect.
Wow the truck turned out awesome Rich, you can hear how much of your blood, sweat and tears went into that build to make that deadline , well done. Phil used to deliver stone to our yard 15 years ago with his 97 Mack before we switched suppliers. What a great guy, used to love hearing the odd story about the glory days of trucking from him. The world needs more Phils. Hello from the concrete guys on Glover rd Phil. Hope to see you on down the road, happy trucking.
The kids did a great job cleaning the ole girl out! Props to them for actually doing something with their lives, not just playing video games, living at moms, and expect everything handed to them, like 99% of the kids their age today. Keep at it boys!
Gees.... save some for the rest of us! Turned out top shelf! Can't wait to see the chicken lights lit at night.... Red LED under glo, mounted on the bottom of each frame rail, bumper to bumper....
Thank you for your family friendly content. We enjoy watching your channel as a family and that hard work, talent and brains are still what is getting the job done!
That is one beautiful truck.it is the prettiest Cabover I ever seen. I drove for 40 years and had to retire on disability because I broke my back. I watch your videos daily. Can't do much else.
Man that's a blast from some of our childhoods. That is one sick cabover it looks like Optimus Primes' cousin Rico Suave the smoothest of the Transformers.
Rich, you must be damned proud of that truck! I absolutely love what you did to that Kenworth! Such a great video series. Thanks for doing these videos… and to think the very first video I watched was when you got that cherry picker running and off that lady’s yard after she had it sit there forever! I been hooked to your channel ever since! 👍🏻👍🏻
What a beautiful monster, loved every minute of this project. Coming from the UK I really love to see how different US cabovers are built - such a cool truck. Congrats Rich and all the fellas who worked on this.
Props to Phil for being able to drive it no worries. Especially bobtail. I hauled road trains around Australia and very rarely ever was under 30 tonnes. If ever I was bobtail I couldn't shift to save my life. I'd grind every gear! It's quite an adjustment going from 100 tonnes to 10.
I've built Two Semi's. A '70 W900 Kenworth; '69 White Freightliner. Each truck took two years. These were total rebuilds. I know what you went thru to put the KW together. Nice work.
Loving the progress! Excellent work! The later replacements/versions of the window lift mechanism used push bike chain with metal sprockets. The early units are good until the plastic drive sprockets get brittle and shatter.
Love the build progress and how you have used new, rebuilt and salvage parts to bring this truck out of the grave and build the ultimate transport rig on youtube pulling the baddest square body ever!!
I'm not a big rig guy but that is a beautiful truck with a lot of work and craftsmanship put into it. I really respect what you do rich and enjoy the journeys. Keep up the great work.
I saw the Tim Hortons cup and it gave it away... Canadians ay! I didn't look up your description but the truck turned out really Nice, What a job you guys did. I thought you guys used Sleighs up there not 18 wheelers, Just kidding! Playing around. I Love Canada, Great folks up there and a super gorgeous land. Trust me if Canada didn't have does rough, tough winters it'll probably have more people that the U.S. Your policies and overall dynamics make your country a pretty nice place to be. But again a Super, Incredible job.... She looks Stunning, Great color scheme.
Great video that is a bad ass cabover I like the paint Scheme looks great interior came out very nice also I like all the Chrome on the truck to show support for your channel I did purchase a decal I'm very happy to display it
Really nice project. I'd love to restore a W9. I ran straight stack, then I turned 19. That's tough to listen to ALL DAY AND NIGHT, especially with a jake.
Love how phil tries to convince you to use it to haul gravel... Rich... Its not an offroad truck... Minutes later the truck is driving off road thru a grass field lol
We're cool seeing that truck on the road you sure so didn't nice job on that same with the tank I bet you get looks everywhere you go I'm sure you do thanks for the video always good time
nice build...if I may make a suggestion: the K100 was notorious for the dash catching fire...they used poor insulation on the wiring. if you are seriously considering putting that truck OTR the please ***go through and completely re wire the dash and fuse box all the way to the batteries*** and also put in a cab power kill switch.
![Will It Start? CAT 3406b Kenworth Cabover Hasn't Ran in 25 Years! #K100Cabover [EP1]](/img/1.gif)
Phil casually floating the gears giving advice. Good man.
He didn’t miss a beat. Just looked natural to him.
Lot
Labi
As an old truck driver, I strongly approve of this truck. She became very beautiful in the end. Very well done. 👍
Agree 100% The colors are perfect. Not a flashy pimped out roller.
Props too those young guys detailing the interior, thats some hardworking youngsters!
Thankfully someone else noticed, and polite and great attitude both of 'em. 😊
Man, that guy must have done some cow haulin or tanker yankin because he's one smooth driver. Definitely old school. Cool truck. Great video. Horn works.
Lost count of phil’s “eh”s 😂😂
Some of the coolest builds on RUclips. Good job Rich and crew!
I dunno I think the semi is ‘too nice’
Ok I saw the inside I take it back it’s not too nice.
I like how you speak true Canadian when with your mates.
Man all his neighbors are awesome.
Sitting at home with snow ever were unable to get jobs done feeling down and see this pop make me feel like I am going to have a good day well done and keep up the good work from the falkland islands 🇫🇰
Are you ready to fend off Argentina in ww3? Sorry about derailing but anyone who says war and unrest aren't on their minds is lying
This could start a long conversation and feel this inst the place for it. But I will say I am proud to be British and have full respect for the the troops in 82 being that is was 40yr ago. For all involved that liberated us in 82 to the love ones they left behind. For all they done for us 40yrs ago. We will always be in debt to them.
That was great to see - thanks Rich. Vince riding in the tank for the parade - perfect
made his day I think!

Vinnie! Vinnie!
Hell yeah, I love it when tubers bring in young local companies for work 💪
Hangin' around Phil so much you got a gravelly voice.
Phil's a great guy, helped you guys out a ton in this build.
Awesome job by the guys on the interior refresh. Still details to do to make it great but, lookin' beauty.
I think all we can agree ya gotta show a short clip at night all light up. Looks awesome Rich. I grew up in a cab over so I appreciate this.
Vince riding in the tank, That’s awesome 👌🏻

The perfection that is the front bumper.

This is my favourite project on RUclips, well done Richard 👏
I don't like the tank at all, but seeing Vince in the driver's seat made me smile. The K Dub is magnificent. Well done.
Always enjoy your builds and how much time you put into the details. My favourite from this video was the test drive with Phil 😃!

...."eh" it's hard to believe I'm like 5 hours away. Awesome stuff, that rig is beautiful!
The kids did a great job cleaning the ole girl out! Props to them for actually doing something with their lives, not just playing video games, living at moms, and expect everything handed to them, like 99% of the kids their age today. Keep at it boys!
That front bumper is like a mirror into a parallel universe... 😉
She moves!! 👏🎉 Congrats guys, so great to see all your work come together!
she moved weeks ago lol. just a pain getting the paperwork
@@DEBOSSGARAGE Oops, missed that one 🤦♂️ still though, great to see it on the open road!
absolute respect for this project! Greetings from Germany.
Gees.... save some for the rest of us!
Turned out top shelf!
Can't wait to see the chicken lights lit at night.... Red LED under glo, mounted on the bottom of each frame rail, bumper to bumper....
Rich as amazing as this turned out. Enough it enough. Time to finish the F350. That’s the build we are all waiting for
Thank you for your family friendly content. We enjoy watching your channel as a family and that hard work, talent and brains are still what is getting the job done!
She's a treat Rich! What a rig.
Making people smile is a unique ability, you seemed to have nailed it.
That is one beautiful truck.it is the prettiest Cabover I ever seen. I drove for 40 years and had to retire on disability because I broke my back. I watch your videos daily. Can't do much else.

You gotta be proud of yourself mate, cos we are

Great as usual Deboss! Optimus Prime and The Shermanator link up for the kids. 😄
One of my absolute favorite series you’ve done by far. You are a joy to watch work and create phenomenal things
Graphite powder or French chalk in the window tracks makes them open and close so smoothly.....
I've built Two Semi's. A '70 W900 Kenworth; '69 White Freightliner. Each truck took two years. These were total rebuilds. I know what you went thru to put the KW together. Nice work.
Went by V&R today and the rig was sitting out front. No matter how good it looks in videos it pales compared to seeing it live. Beautiful truck
Nothing like seeing a project through to completion and getting the gurus test drive and approval. Well done.
Loving the progress! Excellent work!
The later replacements/versions of the window lift mechanism used push bike chain with metal sprockets. The early units are good until the plastic drive sprockets get brittle and shatter.
As Patrick swayze once said “ain’t nothing like a caterpillar engine”. 🤙🏻
That KW is Bad A..!!!! Watching it pull the tank is a site to see!!!!! Nice!!!!!
Omg I love that rig. I’m from NH so sometimes we see new and old Canadian cab overs. I love them!! Yours is amazing.
Love the build progress and how you have used new, rebuilt and salvage parts to bring this truck out of the grave and build the ultimate transport rig on youtube pulling the baddest square body ever!!
Rich, that rig sounds MINTY AF!!! 🤠👍🏼
I'm not a big rig guy but that is a beautiful truck with a lot of work and craftsmanship put into it. I really respect what you do rich and enjoy the journeys. Keep up the great work.

I already love the K100s, now you´re just making me jealous. 😂
Anybody else itching for the C10 LB7 build?? I cant wait
What's more Canadian then using a hockey puck? Using maple syrup instead of silicone to seal it.
That's a glorious day there boys..well done in Dunville..beautiful rig!
Hi Rich. Wow! The rIg is looking magnificent. It's great to see it on the road.
Your little helper, from the right angle, kind of looks like Hawkeye from Marvel :D
You should bring that Kenworth down to Erskine MN for the 1st annual truck show they are having on July 2nd. It would be cool to see it there!
Great looking large car. Love the way it barks coming off that corner at about 1400 rpm. Could watch that all day.
Love the Hockey 🏒 puck mount
If u get new lights with regular plugs , they sell the 3 way plugs daisy chained together… less connectors less mess
You have done amazing job getting the KW back on the road
Damn that machine is pretty!... and the Kenworth looks nice, too.
The old K-Wopper turned out nice! 👍👍
Really nice project. I'd love to restore a W9. I ran straight stack, then I turned 19. That's tough to listen to ALL DAY AND NIGHT, especially with a jake.
That is one good looking truck, great job Rich!!!!!
That ol K100 is turning out awesome!!
Back when things were simple, effective and lasted forever… I miss those days!! Nice truck.
That thing looks amazing! Kudos Rich.
Nice use of a Hockey Puck👍👍
Only drove one K100 and that was a long time ago.... love the 3406B though, best truck engine Cat ever made!
What a beautiful ride. Resarected from the graveyard to a pride n polish ride n style large car!
Rich you should be proud! Awesome job on the truck, tank and video.
We are in the golden age believe it or not. In a few years when we are faced with scenes from fall out in real life, we will envy our moments here.
Love how phil tries to convince you to use it to haul gravel... Rich... Its not an offroad truck... Minutes later the truck is driving off road thru a grass field lol
I'm glad to see this truck project from beginning to end. it came out beautifully.
Awesome cabover man
Now you can take it on Power Tour next year
tow truck next year
Wow. What a transformation. Gorgeous truck
i drove truck for 27 years. 15 of those years was with a fuller road ranger 13 speed. in my humble opinion that was the best tranny made.
We're cool seeing that truck on the road you sure so didn't nice job on that same with the tank I bet you get looks everywhere you go I'm sure you do thanks for the video always good time
this has to be one of the best looking trucks i've seen
That driveby shot of it was the sickest thing ever! Gotta love a straight piped CAT. Keep up the great work Rich.
Thank you guys for showing ur hard wrk on these truc
You can tell Phil has driven some miles, cool calm and collective while floating them gears.
Awesome truck Guys. Rich you and the guys got the best looking truck on RUclips....
I've enjoyed every step of this build...thank you!
truck looks amazing Rich!
Tip for detailing crew.
Always lower the windows and clean the top of the glass.
Or you touch the window and it gets broken and stuck down
it got stuck down lol hence the fix
Love a k100 drove one for years with 3408 pulling gravel train👍🏻
That is one beautiful cabover !!!
nice build...if I may make a suggestion: the K100 was notorious for the dash catching fire...they used poor insulation on the wiring. if you are seriously considering putting that truck OTR the please ***go through and completely re wire the dash and fuse box all the way to the batteries*** and also put in a cab power kill switch.
Good job man you did a real good job putting that thing together
Love these 2 projects. Epic builds!!!! Not sure how you are going to top this.
You are the man Rich!!
