It’s been awhile since I last worked on “Little by Little” my 1979 Peterbilt 359 semi-truck. I’ve been awfully busy working on getting “Project Snowman” torn down and the frame blasted and painted before winter set in. Now it’s time to show LBL some love again and install some new goodies.
I’ve been wanting to hook onto a trailer and try out the twinsticks with a load on but was unable to do so as the wiring and air lines for the trailer were removed during the restoration. As such, I took this episode to sweep off the snow and install all of that so I might be able to pull something in the spring. My cousin Rod keeps asking me to come up to his farm and put this truck to work so I guess I’d better get on it.
Enjoy watching the "little by little" progress of this Peterbilt 359 project that's nearing completion and the next #ProjectSnowman, a Kenworth W900A tribute truck to the one used in Smokey and the Bandit and the one after that a 1979 Kenworth K100 cabover that I’m planning to build up like the one used in the trucking movie High Ballin’ with Jerry Reed and Peter Fonda.
I know a little about a lot but not an expert in anything … just doing the best I can, learning as I go ... I do all my own stunts

I heard zip ties call you out and I said to myself- no way he’ll do it, but in true twin sticks fashion you got er done!! Love this channel!
Id notch the front of the deck plate at the front and slide it forward using the pogostick mount to support it.
Just what I was thinking. Should be way more solid that way
And add a strip of rubber to insulate the plates from chaffing as they are aluminium.
Same thought 👍
I thought the exact same thing. Lot stronger that way
👍🏻 yep, i was thinking notch the front and notch the back and let it sit flush in between the frame
Minty cold start, burnout and wranchin bud! Happy fuckin new year!
The Tango & Cash clip was Gold!!!!!!
Around 3.00 you year the truck running. RUclips autocaption is "Music".
Yup. That'll be about right 👍
Love the white smoke. The Peterbilt is the best truck I've ever seen.
Turn the lines around. You want the bigger ends at the trailer.
Yup easy fix 👍
This series is awesome can't wait to see your fleet all fixed up
After seeing the clip of the burnout, I can confirm that you are the most American Canadian I have ever seen! lol. The deck plate and pogo stick look great...makes for a very clean look.
I may be able to get a project truck soon ....got my eye on one . Because of these videos and other like it ,I'm able to see what lies in store , and this little peek into the future allows me to make more intelligent decisions. So thanks for lighting the fire.
Looks good, as was said, consider switching the airlines around so the handles are on the trailer side. And maybe while their off, notch the deck plate and drill holes for pogo and air and over lap the the plate and angle bracket for support along the front of the deck plate. Love your videos they have given me alot of ambition to get my old iron back in the road.
Yeah just saw that . I like the handles
Yes you have the lines backwards the plastic is for your hand
Peterbilt 389 is where it's at! 😉
Beautiful bike man didn't know you were into bikes thats one slick harley.
Tango and Cash scene, awesome
It's about time to get it ready to pull a trailer and the mounting plate and deck looks great!!!
Greetings from Russia !!!! We have the same weather in Siberia !! The caterpillar engine is super!!!👍 👍 👍
I STILL SAY that you have the best rebuild content on RUclips. You actually are hands on which makes the video the best.. Keep up the good work from Gill Trucking Inc. Raleigh NC..
Your 50/50 is like mine. 50% I'll get it wrong or 50% I won't get it right. Always enjoy your efforts on the video. Thanks.
Twin sticks if u can see this please like iv been watching since second ep of old blue and i recon this truck towing grain is a good source of income for u and your garage and good for this channel u can record u druving
Hahahah zip ties put up and you kicked ass!! Rockin!!
Perfect, way to show them. Pete and the Harley . Lol
Looking forward to seeing the old girl hooked up to a load!
You put the hoses on backwards the handles went twords the gladhands.
Happy New year!
That’s what I was going to say also.
Glad I’m not the only one.
just going to say something as well:)
Love seeing this truck transform from how you found it. Can't wait to see the other two trucks take shape. Also ready to see this truck hooked up to that camper if that's still the plan. If I had the knowledge on diesel I would love to find an old rig to pull my camper. But I pull with an 88 Chevrolet Crew cab 1 ton and I know the feeling on the labor of love because this truck is starting to show its age.
Awsome video the new hoses and that deck thing really brings the truck out nice good job thumbs up and shared
Looking forward to seeing that cab over in the yard! Gonna be a sweet ride man!!
Bad ass Harley, man! I knew there was something I liked about you.
Sounds so nice, been binging your whole channel. Love seeing a guy chase his dreams and be passionate!
Love your channel, heads up the plastic handle looking ends go on the glad hand side of the air line and the spring ends go to the frame connection. Helps protect the air line connection when you're connecting and unconnecting your glad hands.
Boy. She sounds great
Love the old Pete🤙
Love your show Victoria B.C.
Love your channel and your trucks they are awesome! I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos and you have fueled my passion for old trucks and I sure hope one day I can have my own Peterbilt! Keep up the great work and get them old trucks running! 😀
I just get the chills when "little by little" is rolling coal in your intro.... Amazing how far this project is coming along.
Beautiful. Very Sharp Looking
Just got done binge watching the whole lbl playlist yesterday. Really inspiring me to find a project truck of my own. Stay safe and keep em comin.👍
Hello twinstick garage. Just wanted to say how much I’ve enjoyed watching your videos here in England. I stumbled across your channel purely by accident. Love watching your progress on the 359. Looking forward to seeing much more.
looking good that truck came a long way
Would be great to see little by little pulling a grain cart behind her. She's come a long way, and she has some more to go but she's coming together perfect. Have a happy New Year to you and your family, wish you all nothing but the best on the health and wealth and be safe.
Hi Marc. I’m a locomotive engineer from Saskatchewan, not a truck driver, but I love your trucks, and your channel. Just my opinion, but I really hope you are going to give your beautiful Pete a new paint job. That truck is screaming for a nice new coat of paint.....whatever paint scheme you decide on. I hope you stay true to the original colour and paint scheme, but it’s your truck....so ultimately it’s your choice. You’ve done a fantastic job of restoring that beautiful truck, but I believe she needs a new coat of paint to tie it all together imho. Great job, and I love your videos. You have a great channel. Keep ‘em coming. Thanks.
“You’re a legend in your own mind”.
Oh Happy New Year to you and your kind natured wife , she has to be .
Happy Days and all the best for the new year to you and the family Olemate.
Love hearing that thing purr!! Can’t wait to see that thing pull a trailer and put to work.
Dear M.P.
👍👌👏 Very well done again and as always. All you put on the truck looks really nice not to say sharp! ;-) Additionally: The bracket for the pogo stick was a great purchase. Happiness/luck is with the able = you definitely deserve it.
2) Maaaan, don't worry! The longer it takes = the more videos = the better.
3) Can't wait to see you two pullin' some grain and I'm eagerly looking forward to hear her roar under load. ;-)
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards, luck and health to all of you.
I didn't realize how good that Peterbilt sounded with those straight pipes
I love the idea of putting the old girl back to work! Can't wait to see that!
I really like the look of the white hood and the rest shifting to blue. When you consider painting it. White to Blue!
Just a tip. That pogo stick has a big spring in the base that allows it to fold over when needed. You don’t need a spring at the top. Also like others said the hoses should be flipped around so the plastic handles are where the glad hands are. Love the rig! Keep up the hard work!
Tango and Cash references ftw!
A Pete cold start and a burnout... well holy sh*t. The old Pete purrs like a kitten once she gets going though.... you have to love it. I had no idea that the pop stick plates where that much moolah, Geez Mark when you do go on your next road trip for your next hunt videos, you could grab a whack of those pogo stick plates and sell em or trade em ..if there that are to find and that expensive to buy new...pay for the new shop in no time...lol
Old Pete would look good hauling grain.... I am sure one or both of you would enjoy rolling down the highway on a nice sunny evening heading to the elevator in the Pete. She's looking mighty spiffy,more and more like a highway tractor every time we see her I bet you can't wait to pull the first legit load down the road with her.
You look forward to working on them and we look forward to see how all progress is coming along on them...so I think were all a little attached....dont tell the wife I said that though,....
I'd love to have a 359 one day
Thanks for the entertainment this past year. Happy New Year!
I like to use 2 pogos. If you ever run wet kit the hoses get heavy and brake the spring in the pogo ! Good job 👍
I don't Know 10 min in to this my hands froze watching this. Love the dedication. But I just looked outside my window, checked mailbox,no mail... it was cold, looked over in drive way saw the bronco covered by tarp , yea too cold. Back to the video.
So good to see you working on old blue, like old times 👍
Those coupling to the trailer are very common in France , they are called parm couplings , like two hands coming together. Now living in the Philippines, look forward to your vids. 👍👍
Lookin Great 👌
Keep up the good work, love ole Blue and can’t hardly wait to see what you do with the Snowman 😎
I am so proud of how you have saved this truck from its field of demise and slumber! Good going man! This one looks like it going to be a good hauler for you if you get it up to pull grain.
Ain't nothin like starting the day off with a new twin sticks upload
U are right about that one
Ain’t that the truth. Not one episode has bored me.
Man, I hope you have something in that cab protecting that new interior from all the snow. On another note I would still be trying to get it out of the snow. You deserve a Bud Light. “Real Men of Genius”
"This one's for you, Mr. RUclips-Big-Rig-Restorer"
Out of several channels this is my favorite thank you my freind.
Love the intro music 💯
A new TwinStick video is a great way to start my day. Thanks!
Thanks for another great episode with all of the excellent explanations of how and why you do certain things. Love the sound of the truck. Oh, and love the funny movie clips that go along with your video.
what a truck!
You know if you had a tilt equipment trailer you could pick up your own projects.... like the cab over! 😁
That's a good looking blue my favorite blue is Dallas Cowboys blue.
I always told my students that the quick, easy way is almost guaranteed to be the wrong way
HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM AMERICA.
Wow playing music improves your work efficiency exponentially
Nice job,keep goeing! Greetings from Lithuania :)
Yes trucking videos 👍👍
From the uk 🇬🇧
Super! Happy new year Mark to you and the family!
One of my favorite channels. I admire the hell out of you for sure. You've got quite the beautiful fleet in the making!
It'll be awesome to see old blue out there working 👍
for my holiday trailer KW, I put large shop style quick couplers so I could take the lines and trailer wire off when I wasn't using them, Just a thought.
Looks awesome Mark👍👍👍
Great!
Idk why it's so interesting to watch other people work. But it is 😉
You have your hoses backwards, the quick disconnects go to the blue and red handle on your hoses. They give you leverage to put them on your trailer.
Cat sounds good! Nice project!
Can't wait to see pulling that loaded grain trailer hammered down
The Pete’s back!!
Truck is going to look good pullin a hopper
TSG Ahhhh it's better than good! Happy New Year!
I remember that sound, smell and dash...
❤
Happy new year!
Videos are fantastic thankyou for that the time to make and uploaded them, we are watching from Essex in England 🇬🇧 keep them coming, Peterbilt are great trucks....Scania trucks king of the road.
Working outside in chilly Alberta happy new years to ya
Keep up the awesome project love what your doing ...
Happy new year. The plastic ends are for the glad hand side. stay safe
been waitin for your burnout lol TY been watching everybodys
Nice harley 👍
That's one heck of a great looking truck! You've done an amazing job!
I don't know why I was so excited for this, but it was great! I love seeing you add new (or "new") things to the rig, so thank you for sharing. Happy New Year! Hope 2021 is a stellar year for you.
Good morning my Canadian brother first time I’ve reached out great channel I’m watching it from the beginning glad hand handles right behind the gladhands great for hooking up disconnecting obviously and add some stability to the end of the line and hand one twisting thank you Mike from Pennsylvania
Man I love this truck, Sir. Wish everyday was Thursday. Don't get enough of it. Guess I'll have to wait til next year!!! lol
you got your air line hoses on wrong the spring ends go where the plastic ends are, the plastic ends are handles for the glad hands, beside that your doing a great job.
Easy fix 👍
Really enjoy your channel, it’s a nice escape from what’s going on in the world right now. Best wishes for 2021 from England.
