Hey Mark. You know what. These are your projects. Do it at your own pace buddy. Just know, we all jump for joy every Thursday morning for a Twin Sticks Garage episode. Thanks for the upload and have a great day.
I love the way LBL looks I think it’s amazingly unique and if the cab roof was painted blue and the hood was left white I think it would look awesome! But of course it is your truck in the end and I hope you do what you think is best.
Hey twin sticks, you are 100% right by calling Lbl. A beauty. She is perfect just the way she is . Awesome truck and awesome content keep up the good work.
Can't wait to see LBL done and painted to match and she be done besides final touches much love Mark keep up the amazing work can't wait to see snow man and the cabover done someday as well who know what project you'll dig into next
Hey Mark you have a lot bigger shop than a lot of trucking companies have. That's why us old fifty-five-year-old guys have arthritis today. Great job on the snowman. Unbelievable 👍👍
I just watched you 359 project from start to pulling it in your shop to start the paint process and I have to tell you I own an 86 359EXHD and have been putting off doing exactly what you did because I’m in the same boat no shop and little time and money but you have inspired me to get up and start working on in a little at a time and a little progress is still progress so A BIG THANK YOU and looking forward to seeing more of your other projects
Sweet!! Awesome stuff Mark! I agree about extending LBL a little since there is so much rust jacking it certainly wouldn't hurt so you can get it done and over with. That way you don't have to worry about it later. Dallas is a class act! Nice job with the flatbed getting it unloaded, and very cool you'll have a more comfortable/ versatile and more modern suspension for the K100. I'm sure you've seen your fellow Canadian Rich Deboss' K100, that thing is really nice, and there is a lot of nice parts/ build quality on it. Just proves how nice a cabover can look. Can't wait to see the next one! 👍👍😁
That’s your rig. She runs and drives great and sounds badass. Paint can wait. Get your fleet rolling and then paint it💪🏻 greetings from your lower neighbor in Pennsylvania
Cool to see that black Pete on one of your videos, my boss and his father put that truck together 22 years ago then they sold it. It used to be a tractor, him and his father stretched it and put the tilt deck on it
Man watching you put those caps on the stacks just gave me flashbacks of forgetting the coffee can on the ol' tractor and starting it up and not being able to find where it's coming down. Lol INCOMING!!!!
This making me wanna feel a video being created for Snowman to pull the trailer as a test drive around. I've been thinking about it since you finished the lights.
Greetings from New Brunswick ! Really enjoy your videos, look forward to every Thursday morning. Love the ol Pete... she'd look badazz at 280 WB 😎 Keep up the great work at all your projects 👍
👀 looks like the next projects going to be a skid loader for easier snow removal. no sense in having the nice warm shop when you have to freeze to shovel the snow XD
Party at your place! Dude, you need to take time for enjoyment too! Drive LBL for the summer! You have a ton of other shit to do! We absolutely love watching you do it! Take us for a ride ok! Be Safe Mark!
awsome video mark shes going to look good on the duke for sure i like your idea for the pete aswell thumbs up and shared i am finally caught up yaaahahahh
It would be nice if they made a fairly priced waterproof cover big enough for the blue Pete ....Love the videos ....keep on keepin the shiney side up and the rubber side down Brother.
Stretch LbL! Nothing like a long body Pete, howling down the blacktop, smoking like a locomotive! And as for paint Mark. Y'all gotta do it on yer own schedule. We can watch, we can suggest, some will whine. But it's still what you can afford, time and money, or more to the point, the Mrs. will allow. You bring the show, we watch and wonder how you do it. And just as an after thought, how about, "But Honey, LbL is outside, for who knows how long! I NEED to build an extension/second shop with three bays. one will be for the camper! I promise!" Mark keep 'em coming, we're watching. Greeting from the now frozen lower Ontario region.
Hello Mark, Nice to see the new suspension for the Duke, I think it's going to be a great improvement for that truck. Trust me the only suspension rougher than leaf and torsion is rubber block and on rough roads there is not a lot of difference between any of them. As far your paint job on LBL, don't lose any sleep over it pal, it will get painted when it gets painted, I think it looks damn good just the way is. Yes it will look fantastic when it does get done but till then I think appreciating what that truck is and where you have brought it from, a few more months or even years isn't going to hurt anyone. But I do feel sorry for ole blue, cold winters are rough on us old guys. Have a great week Mark, say hello to Mrs. Twin stix for us, see you next week.
Mark I like the idea of adding a couple of feet to LBL, also I have been following Snowman since you bought her and she's coming along Great, I have been following duke since the beginning too i love your videos keep it up
My 2 cents for what it’s worth- LBL is perfect length and era correct- don’t rush the paint but definitely go back to the all blue - maybe some scroll work ?
Man, that bumper sure has some bling to it!! I think lbl would look great with a little more stretch to her. She's a beaut but a little added jewellery adds class. Getting lbl complete to your vision is what's important not how fast you can get it done. Stay true to your dreams bud. Till next time👍👍👍
As David Freiburger would say, "Don't get it right, just get it running." I do the same with my projects. I had an old K100 for a while with spring rear axle - you'll be way happier with those airbags. Definitely would recommend airbags on the steer axle if you aren't planning that already. As to the 300" wheelbase, that's a bit less than my Prevost has (45' bus, 314" wheelbase). Yeah, it takes some getting used to but you'll be fine, it doesn't take long.
Hey Mark, I think “Little by Little” don’t mind, she’s used to that spot 😜 That reminds me to your older video’s, where You were working outside in the snow !!! RESPECT ! 💪🏻 And hey, take your time by painting LBL. Keep up with the great work and making those interesting video’s ! Grtz from Holland 🇳🇱
Happy Thursday, and had to watch this one again. Going to be awesome seeing this clip put on the Duke. I'm sure whatever you decide with LBL will be awesome but a cut off there as well would be pretty sweet. Keep up the great work Mark!
I started watching your channel as I am big smokey and the bandit fan. Since then I've started admiring the rest of your trucks. I'm not a trucker myself so I'd love it if you did a video showing what all the gauges are for.
Well now that you asked, I would have put that black one in the snow, I think three extra feet would look gr8, would make it well proportioned. But there your projects I'll be watching, thanks.
I always prefer to open and shut the hoods from the front as intended to help avoid twisting the hood and throwing off the alignment of the hood by lifting from the sides. Nice collection bud!
My only thought is that Blue Pete is about right IMHO, period correct. Don't stretch it until you drive the Cabover around awhile first. Then if you really really love that 300" business, then maybe stretch the other one. I don't think you'll need more than one long one 🤣👍😍
Hi Mark, just a comment from Scotland, LBL looks sweet just the length she is right now. Won’t look as good 3ft longer in my opinion. Enjoying the channel, keep up the hard work. Thanks
No chance of parallel parking Blue next to Snowman? Seems like a lot of space there in your videos. It kills me leaving stuff outside with no cover. Good stuff all around with the projects!
It's great you got a air ride rear suspension for the Duke. First thing is CAGE all the brake canister so you can roll it around and work on it. And LBL would look nice 3ft longer. And as far as the painting it when ever time will allow you to do so.
I found a great way to move a truck around with the rear cutoff. Get yourself a pair of trailer jacks and mount them to the sides of the frame behind the sleeper. I welded two pieces of steel plate to the end of a piece of 4x4 1/4" wall rectangular tubing and used u bolts to bolt the 4x4 tubing to the bottom of the frame and bolted the jacks to the plate I welded to the end of the 4x4 tubing. You can move the truck around on them and you can crank them up or down to get the height just right for mating up to the new clip. I think I spent like 300 bucks for everything to build it. I think I used 3500 lb or 5000 lb trailer jacks.

I like how the paint is right now honestly.. Keeps its character and has personality
Tell’s a Story!
@@mikerooney7928 Yessir!
Cut it up and make it your own. What you were saying says 100% genius. Keep up the good work, we're loving every minute.
That's awesome，Excellent video👍👍👍
Always happy for Twin Stick Thursday
Good morning ✌️👍🙏🙏
@@josephboley Good morning sir
I just love Little By Little. Nothing better then a Old School Pete 359. I also can't wait to see. How The Duke turns out
It’s going to be a lot of work to paint that truck. Excited to see it when it happens.
I love the way LBL looks I think it’s amazingly unique and if the cab roof was painted blue and the hood was left white I think it would look awesome! But of course it is your truck in the end and I hope you do what you think is best.
I second that!!!
The paints golden, real nice 👌. Clean coat it and call it good, she’s already a legend. Jerry Reed would be proud to drive er.
Old blue looks great
👍👍for extending LBL and I agree with the other guys that mentioned leaving the hood white. It’s what makes LBL unique
Hey twin sticks, you are 100% right by calling Lbl. A beauty. She is perfect just the way she is . Awesome truck and awesome content keep up the good work.
Can't wait to see LBL done and painted to match and she be done besides final touches much love Mark keep up the amazing work can't wait to see snow man and the cabover done someday as well who know what project you'll dig into next
Mark LBL is such a nice truck. She’s what got me into your vids
Just keep the projects rolling mark 👍👍
Hey Mark you have a lot bigger shop than a lot of trucking companies have. That's why us old fifty-five-year-old guys have arthritis today. Great job on the snowman. Unbelievable 👍👍
Everything looks better when you take your time
I like the way little by little is now 👌
Do it in your time and the way that will be best for you. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍👍😎😎
Ultimately the decision is yours and yours alone. Keep up the fascinating and satisfying work. Calgary fan of your work.
Pete looks good the way it is. The chrome it self makes up for the paint.
Go for it!.... Go for it ALL!!! 👍
I just watched you 359 project from start to pulling it in your shop to start the paint process and I have to tell you I own an 86 359EXHD and have been putting off doing exactly what you did because I’m in the same boat no shop and little time and money but you have inspired me to get up and start working on in a little at a time and a little progress is still progress so A BIG THANK YOU and looking forward to seeing more of your other projects
As some say, its not always about the size. I think LBL length is just right.
Sweet!! Awesome stuff Mark! I agree about extending LBL a little since there is so much rust jacking it certainly wouldn't hurt so you can get it done and over with. That way you don't have to worry about it later. Dallas is a class act!

It's all good it you make decisions your trucks and channel and channel 👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
That’s your rig. She runs and drives great and sounds badass. Paint can wait. Get your fleet rolling and then paint it💪🏻 greetings from your lower neighbor in Pennsylvania
I opened RUclips to listen to music then I remembered "today's Thursday!" I haven't been disappointed yet.
She will look absolutely gorgeous painted
Cool to see that black Pete on one of your videos, my boss and his father put that truck together 22 years ago then they sold it. It used to be a tractor, him and his father stretched it and put the tilt deck on it
The nostalgia of seeing little by little parked outside your garage brings back good memories
Man watching you put those caps on the stacks just gave me flashbacks of forgetting the coffee can on the ol' tractor and starting it up and not being able to find where it's coming down. Lol INCOMING!!!!
your coin your call lol love all the trucks of yours
All in good time Marc NOTHING happens in a day with the big RIG'S we both know that!!! Keep up the great work driv,ah
LBL is why I got hooked on this channel.
Great decision Mark, that way you can enjoy her until you are confident you have enough time
If you deflate the front tyres on LBL the front bumper will become an instant snow plough,job done!👍😁
That is a pretty cool looking truck even though it is not painted it’s clean as hell
This making me wanna feel a video being created for Snowman to pull the trailer as a test drive around. I've been thinking about it since you finished the lights.
Mark either way you do it its gonna look great you got this my friend.look forward two your videos I learn from them. Keep up the great work buddy.
Awesome can’t wait to see the rebuild take place. It’s gonna be awesome once finished
Old blue tried and true no apologies needed Diamond in the ruff now Show stopper when it's done!
Greetings from New Brunswick ! Really enjoy your videos, look forward to every Thursday morning. Love the ol Pete... she'd look badazz at 280 WB 😎 Keep up the great work at all your projects 👍
Snow does a good polishing to the paint mark 👍
Hi Mark, I think we're all dreaming about warm summer days, I'm all done with winter.😋
It is your channel and your choice as to how projects get done.
👀 looks like the next projects going to be a skid loader for easier snow removal. no sense in having the nice warm shop when you have to freeze to shovel the snow XD
Mark do what u want . I support u
Love the idea on little by little
Love your videos awesome contact
I think The Duke will be my favorite project on your channel
Absolutely on the 3ft extension 🙌
Hey buddy hope you an family are doing great
I am honestly so used to that white and blue on that truck that I kinda like it.
It's been awhile since lbl been parked right there and it's your truck and your channel work at your pace we can wait to see lbl painted
the entire theme of the peat has been, "little by little" you'll get it done!
Party at your place! Dude, you need to take time for enjoyment too! Drive LBL for the summer! You have a ton of other shit to do! We absolutely love watching you do it! Take us for a ride ok! Be Safe Mark!
Hell Yeah, 3' longer! Even sweeter!
Front bumper on LBL looks amazing man
Definitely do that to LBL 3ft oh yea take your time can’t wait till it’s painted it’ll be worth the wait
awsome video mark shes going to look good on the duke for sure i like your idea for the pete aswell thumbs up and shared i am finally caught up yaaahahahh
I vote a big hell yes on adding 3 feet to LBL. Longer is always cooler. That will look sick.
It would be nice if they made a fairly priced waterproof cover big enough for the blue Pete ....Love the videos ....keep on keepin the shiney side up and the rubber side down Brother.
Stretch LbL! Nothing like a long body Pete, howling down the blacktop, smoking like a locomotive! And as for paint Mark. Y'all gotta do it on yer own schedule.

My 2 cents for what it’s worth- LBL is perfect length and era correct- don’t rush the paint but definitely go back to the all blue - maybe some scroll work ?
I agree - I like the length of LBL for what it's worth - swap in the 3.73 rear end gears though!
I agree. It’s the perfect length in case he wants to put her to work off and on. Just my opinion as well.
Man, that bumper sure has some bling to it!! I think lbl would look great with a little more stretch to her. She's a beaut but a little added jewellery adds class.
Getting lbl complete to your vision is what's important not how fast you can get it done.
Stay true to your dreams bud.
Till next time👍👍👍
I've always thought watching your channel. Please take your time, quality is preferred over rushing a job.
shes fine. and in need of love. best to drive it now and fix it all at once. you'll probably need an entire shop to do it.
As David Freiburger would say, "Don't get it right, just get it running." I do the same with my projects.
I had an old K100 for a while with spring rear axle - you'll be way happier with those airbags. Definitely would recommend airbags on the steer axle if you aren't planning that already.

My opinion, LBL would look awesome stretched a little too !
Good point though!
It's gotta fit in the garage!! Haha
Nice video !
Can't wait to start building my 1/25th scale model of this truck, planning on making it have functional lights and have a gravel trailer with the same
Great episode man.
Hey Mark, I think “Little by Little” don’t mind, she’s used to that spot 😜
That reminds me to your older video’s, where You were working outside in the snow !!! RESPECT ! 💪🏻
And hey, take your time by painting LBL.
Keep up with the great work and making those interesting video’s !
Grtz from Holland 🇳🇱
TS, the ol 359 looks fine just the way she is without the repaint… cheers
Awesome video. Like my mom said if it's meant to be it will be or something like that.
Soooo jealous of LBL 🤩
Hi buddy I like the white and blue cool video's
Happy Thursday, and had to watch this one again. Going to be awesome seeing this clip put on the Duke. I'm sure whatever you decide with LBL will be awesome but a cut off there as well would be pretty sweet. Keep up the great work Mark!
Good idea to wait on paint, maybe you could find or build a wall for paint booth to cut down on overspay n dust. LBL looks sharp as it is.
Those stack covers are sweet!!! I'm gona order a set
Always great videos Mark. Take your time on the paint job and prioritize your needs on the trucks. 60107 USA says hi.
I love the ratrod look LBL has, no worries on LBLs paint
I started watching your channel as I am big smokey and the bandit fan. Since then I've started admiring the rest of your trucks. I'm not a trucker myself so I'd love it if you did a video showing what all the gauges are for.

5:16 "Get it over there and shut it off before we all choke to death" 😂
Really like the Pete to go bags on the front.
🤔

В бампере снег отражается как будто он прозрачный! Как камуфляж в фильме хищник круто😎🆒 👍👍
It will deffo look good when its done gor sure
Hi Mark, just a comment from Scotland, LBL looks sweet just the length she is right now. Won’t look as good 3ft longer in my opinion. Enjoying the channel, keep up the hard work. Thanks
Make a white to blue fade with the Peterbilt, i think it will be very nice 👌🏻
No chance of parallel parking Blue next to Snowman? Seems like a lot of space there in your videos. It kills me leaving stuff outside with no cover. Good stuff all around with the projects!
