    That was my favorite truck from the Athens show. Great story behind the classic. Glad you were able to talk to him.

    A very nice old Needle Nose indeed, I drove a 1953 like that when I started trucking in the 60's. A lot of folks don't realize that although these KW's said Canadian Kenworth Vancouver BC the factory was in fact in Burnaby BC. I visited that plant many times over the years until it was closed.

    O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸. I think it adds such excitement when you can hear/read the background on a vehicle, especially a fine truck like this one! I’ve never heard of a truck being made without a speedometer, ever! They do some funky things on older vehicles & this about tops the cake for me. I really like it when something very unique is made for a certain model of truck, something that sets it above any other manufacturer. This guys must love KWs & trucks in general. It’s unusual that a truck will be restored so many times, even one that is worked as well. I agree that this truck would probably look better with a sleeper back on it, but I could take it either way. It is quite a beautiful truck. Love the bumper & fender setup/upgrade that he made to it! See, like I said, when trucking gets into your blood, it’s there to stay. I’m always glad when I see an old rig like this that has had so much love poured into it, especially if it’s driven frequently or worked some. Top notch job for a top notch truck. Wonderful!! 🥰🤩✌️

    6:52 This view on the truck with the hood open and fender tilted forward reminds me of Glen from The Walking Dead when Negan bashed his head in with a bat and his left eye popped out.🤣

    Miss Flatbed, don`t know if you will see this but I would like your help. I`m an old friend of Jim`s from East Tennessee. Kinda lost touch with Jim over the years. Would like to get in touch with him. Thankful for any help. Randy Bounds from Strawberry Plains

    Put a plate on it. At least ACT like it’s going to go to work. Beautiful truck but make it look like it wants to work

      These trucks were for work, not pleasure driving like a car. Make it look like it’s going to work, not church. Paint the top of the plate I don’t care, but the truck isn’t a car.
