My profile picture is of my father and I in his Pete 352 back around 1988. He taught me how to drive in it when I could reach the pedals! Those old Petes will always have a special place in my heart, and seeing one as well-maintained as this puts a smile on my face. Also, good job keeping the wheelbase reasonable! Stretching them out completely eliminates the main advantage of a cabover.
Back in the day when we hooked up to a trailer we did the walk around, check to see lights were working and tires were good, loved the old cabovers, brings back nice memories. Stay safe my friend.
Skipping a 'tug' test got me to lose a good local job offer on an inspection and road test even though I bent down under the trailer with a flashlight to visually see the kingpin locked AND going only going FIVE mph. over the speed limit on a wide open blvd. that also got me check marked, and thats with 18 years of experience and no preventables, and an otherwise stellar road test. Annoys me to this day..Robert at 67.
You know, I was about to comment about the same thing, didn't know if the tires were flat, lights were out or if some homeless people were sleeping in the trailer or if the doors were even closed,, 🤔 not to mention if it was damaged from a swift driver trying to park in the area
Every trucker should know when you hook up to a trailer you give it that tug test this guy did not do it luckily the trailer did not fall out even though you hear the kingpin lock on the fifth wheel you still have to give that tug test to be on the safe side even though you've been driving for 50 or 60 years don't make a rookie mistake
@@Trident750UK It would be nice if they sold the K200 here but less restrictive length regulations here driver preference for conventionals killed the market for cabovers here.
Don't use this video for the proper way to hook-up a trailer! No tug test, sight inspection of the 5th wheel lock, and no walk-around inspection of the trailer.
Beautiful pete!.Back in 79 I drove a cabover pete but it was dark brown metallic with 3 different stripes running through it and had the 400 cummins 10 speed.I had a international transtar high 5th wheel plate before that with no air ride the pete was my first air ride what a treat on the back.
I remember driving my dads cabover for the first time at 19 23 years ago now👴🏼. It was a rainy day and the container truck in front of me went off the road down the embankment my stomach sunk won’t ever forget that feeling.
Who ever your car driver was should know better, never flash your high beams! Turn you lights down to parking lights, or marker lights. Then back on. 👍👍
Great rig and content! 🥰 You got several angles and aspects...pretty thorough. Cabovers rule! 🤩 Make the trip and enjoy the ride - the Porter Dude of Ohio! 🇺🇸
COE all we drove in early 1971s on up. Saw the USA threw the windshield of cornbinders,petes,freight shakers,KWs etc. I didn't get to drive a hood until 1996
Man love the truck my dad back in the 80s drove a cab over pet and that's all she wrote I have loved trucks since then I was a driver for a while had a stroke and had to get out my last truck was a 2019 pet loved it be safe and keep it between the lines and watch for bears
Assume prefer the old school original 22" white steering wheel with dual Bergstrom defroster fans in middle of windshield, also 3 air brake vales blue, red, yellow take some of these newbies they see that and they be stumped as to why the driving school didn't explain that set up.
@Anthony Rector yes he does anthony...obviously you've never been in the cab of a late 70's early 80's cabover..they were set up like that don't believe us look it up or find 1...and some trucks had 2 sticks..a few had 3 and no power steering
Classic 8 garage you know what your talking about...im only 44 and have been driving for about 21 years but my dad had a international transtar 2 I was a little boy but I remember it (north American vanlines)..you had to be a lumberjack to drive thoes types of tractors..rubberblock/spring suspension 24 inch steering wheel no power steering unless you had some $ single bunk...hell just getting up inside of it was a task..lol but the trips me him and mom took across the country were fun
@@lornperkins4270 Good stuff I remember a local guy from town He owned a Ford 9000 cabover and was leased onto North American Van Lines blue white trailers never forget, are they still around do you Know?
Ya cooler behind ya head is not a good move. After 50yrs an 8 to 10 million miles ive seen odd things happen and some hurt a bit. If you're truck was a white road commode coe that cooler would be weightless because they road so rough if it weren't tarped down it would orbit inside the cab. My brother and I ran double alot and we had to switch to a coe white freightliner road commode as we called it one trip from Winston Salem to New Hampshire unload then to LOS ANGELES and we had to use a big rubber strap just to hold cb on the dash. Everything else we just left in the floor because we knew sooner or later it would be back where it belonged. We had alot of fun back then. My best friend, my brother passed away in 2012 at the Mt Morris P.A. truck stop. I'm retired an Live alone an think of those fun times very often. Travel safe friend.
Driver that’s a pretty good looking rig brother iv always loved a flat nose old truck running great I drive international I love it old but love them old ones has the good old Detroit motor you can abuse that motor an it will ask for more not that I abuse it that’s my baby it takes care of me an I take care of her she will run hard all night an want to run more in the morning lol you stay safe out there driver keep the shiny side up an the rubber down
What an awesome Pete! My late father drove one of these all his life. I miss tagging along.
Wow I haven’t seen one that beautiful in a long time . Cool to see the cabovers being restored

And a tug test
Two flat tires on the right hand side of the trailer and he didn't even notice.
Yes sir. And always a tug test.

He did.I seen it.
Watching this, brought back the days from 1987-1989 I drove for Mickey Gilley He had 2 Pete 362's.
In Houston?
The look, the sound & the smell is priceless 👍
HOOKED UP TO HIS TRAILER AND DIDNT KICK HIS TIRES, BAD BOY.
I remember the one my dad use to drive , I won’t forget and no matter what models.Come out this will always be the best period
Beautiful 362. Very classy and classic....and no ridiculous frame stretch. I love it!
Totally agree....great looking truck......!!...those stretched frames look absolutely crap..!!
@@Trident750UK Yes they do but they're all the rage now.
Clayton Brown it’s a real shame you don’t make the cabovers anymore, like they do in Australia.....the Kenworth K200 is a fabulous looking motor..
@@Trident750UK It would be nice if they sold the K200 here but less restrictive length regulations here driver preference for conventionals killed the market for cabovers here.
Clayton Brown give me a cab over any day...like we have here in the UK and Europe..👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

I recently met a driver who thought his cabover
truck was ugly. I then asked if I could have
permission to film his ugly truck, he smiled.
Her camera lens is cracked in about 3 places. Didn't someone notice that?..beautiful petercar. Like that kitty cat
I noticed it so much I couldn’t watch the whole video!!!
Seen this rig a few times running around Indiana. Love the paint
Can the Music, love the Pete !!!,!,
That's one sweeeeeeet Pete. My grandfather had a late 80's Pete cab over for a while. Great video
That's a pretty baby there,it brings back memories!!!!!
That is one gorgeous rig! Awesome video!
Didn't do an inspection when he hooked up trailer cranked up dollies and up his gloves in cab good enough
Love the doghouse. You can put all your stuff on it. Used to have one in my old JB hunt truck.
Cool video!Dont see many cabovers working mostly just show. First truck was a 69 Pete 362
I drove OTR when Cab Over was the rule, and, conventionals were not nearly as common, I loved my C/O trucks !!
Got to love those 362 n 352 Pete cabovers
Good looking truck! Man I don't miss climbing in and out of them though and cold in the winter and hot in the summer!
Love the cab over my friend. They r my favourite type of rigs
Sweet ride!
Love Spine Busters!
My favorite is the GMC Astro! All Glass!
Thanks for filming this.
Who ever your car driver was should know better, never flash your high beams!
Turn you lights down to parking lights, or marker lights. Then back on.
👍👍
Torsee 🇺🇸I drove an Astro back in the mid 80s...fun truck to drive. Love cabovers! Love a Cat or Series 60 Detroit engines.
This is really nice! Standing tall on those 24.5's and that series 60 Detroit sounds strong and healthy!!💪😍👍
The music was very much needed
What's with all the drum music? Can't hear the truck for that ridiculous music
Gorgeous truck.
Beautiful cabover. 👍

Saludos desde México, que bien grabas, nuevo suscriptor, 👌👍✌🙏
Beautiful truck !!!!!! Always loved cab overs. Outstanding job on the video as well.
I dont think we were watching the same video...the first two minutes looks like the lens is cracked in two places...Amateurish at best.
@@williamdurham7722 what are you talking about.
MAX , i used english...What are you confused about ?
Dang. That's a nice Pete.
I love it.its my dream truck.nice paint job,about factory length,half fenders, and not to over chromed
Beautiful Peterbilt cab over.
Nice to see a cabover out on the road in the us
COE all we drove in early 1971s on up. Saw the USA threw the windshield of cornbinders,petes,freight shakers,KWs etc. I didn't get to drive a hood until 1996
Great walkaround!
Love that's it factory looking. Short bunk, it's a gorgeous cabover
Cab over trucks are so cool.
such a cool truck! love 362's (I have 2) And the Detroit is a great engine, keep er' running top notch
And he calls himself a trucker with no inspection of tires, 5th wheel, and lights...heres your ticket young man you failed
Very nice truck 👌!!!!
Classic Like a very powerful truck.
Man love the truck my dad back in the 80s drove a cab over pet and that's all she wrote I have loved trucks since then I was a driver for a while had a stroke and had to get out my last truck was a 2019 pet loved it be safe and keep it between the lines and watch for bears
You need to discover punctuation so your thoughts and meanings will flow better.
That idle sounds like a Detroit 60 Series underneath
Cat
Definitely a 60 series
That idle sound made my pants suddenly feel a lot tighter..lol
You don’t have nearly enough clutter on that doghouse. 😂😂😂. Back when I was in a K100, I could barely see out the passenger window.
Wished they can come back... great super reliable trucks with the best engines ever!!💯👍🏼💯
Nice rig
i like the truck and do you have any cold start videos of the truck
whats up with the messed up camera lens?
Nice truck!!
You may have heard it lock once you backed up to the trailer but you never eyeballed it. Just saying... beautiful truck by the way.

Beautiful truck brother and sister! Now change the Flag asap! HOOAH!!!
Great video lacinda 🌹🌻🌷❤
Nice...drive safe..
What a beauty 😊👍👍👍
When I think truck driver, I think cab overs, I'm also 45 years old too🤗
Nice looking c/o.
Nice truck
Absolutely beautiful truck. But Thats a 362S86. It has triple windshield wipers and circle turn signals. The normal 362 never had this.
Sweet Ride !!
That Detroit is puuuurrrrring
That guy sorta looked like mike landis that’s with the peoples convoy , great music for semi music
I love the red light they are really good for your eyes at night
Nice American truck indeed. 😎👌
Furst. Love those short nose trucks, a little ruff riding
Nice truck.
Классный аппарат!
Klass video myzika 2021 🇺🇦👍😎
I would definitely get that camera lense cleaned or fixed
Hate those crappy plastic air lines. Have rubber ones on mine. Love the old COE’s. Used to see a lot of them back in the day.
Sexy truck, it’s just a 379 but without the nose
Sweet Cabover!!!!!!
Nice ride just need little stretch lol
the trailer was higher than the fifth wheel, maybe the king pin isn't lock.... driver didn't make any pre- trip inspection,
No 4ways on while backing and hooking up
But still great video brother be safe out there.
En sus anos esos camiones fueron de los mejor especilmente el 3406 cat de 2 palancas la browny que es la 4x4
That's real trucking!!!!!!

i want one. semi retired wouldnt mind running out my last trips in one with steering air ride of course
Everything is top rate, until you drive away and don't at at least bump your tires or check ✔️ out the lights. Oversights cost money 💸💸💸💸💸💰💰💰💰💰💰
Assumption is the mother of all screw-ups
Thee best truck to own while OTR’n
Driver that’s a pretty good looking rig brother iv always loved a flat nose old truck running great I drive international I love it old but love them old ones has the good old Detroit motor you can abuse that motor an it will ask for more not that I abuse it that’s my baby it takes care of me an I take care of her she will run hard all night an want to run more in the morning lol you stay safe out there driver keep the shiny side up an the rubber down
That old truck runs better than your new truck.
Good oh Mike Landis
Atrium Door Company Irving,Tx fleet of these trucks own I-30, I-20 going East Coast.
Looks like the same pete that pulled for shoprite
