- I met up with Jason Sawyer and he let me take his pride and joy for a ride. The truck is a 1986, 359 Peterbilt with a 425hp CAT and a 15 speed Overdrive transmission and 36" sleeper. Truck runs like a dream, thanks for the ride Jason!
The Pete 359 is not only a Truck. Its a Legend.
Thanks for the memories. I used to own a 1983 359. Had a cat motor, 13 speed trans, duel stacks, Chrome air breathers and that thing could haul ass fully loaded. Oh....it also had Armstrong steering and throttle lock. Man.... I miss that truck. Take care my friend.
Old coinchaser Real old school with that arm strong steering. That's how I started out too.
359 with corvette dash, 3406 and 15 speed..... THAT brings back memories!
The best dashboard!
The corvette dash really sets those 359 interiors off in a whole different category of class!
No pollution control no computers, plenty of smoke, lot's of noise what's not to like. I had a truck pass me the other day & I couldn't even hear it. sounded like a car.
They sure don't make 'em like they used to. Sick truck, great vid. Thanks for sharing that sweet sound. I miss the days when they all sounded that good
Love it! Brings some memories back for me. I never drove a 359, but I used to drive a Mack Superliner with at 36' sleeper and 440 hp. I really liked that truck even with the tiny sleeper by today's standards.
That truck sounds great and so does the Jake brakes 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You are one of the coolest trucker youtubers, the truth is, never stop Boston❤
That's so nice of you my friend, I appreciate your support! 😊 💯
@@TheBostonTrucker I would love to see it in person, I have never seen one live in Panama City 🇵🇦 In the heart of Central America
best truck ever made! the Rolls Royce of big rigs!
SteamGent I'd say the 69 camaro of trucks.
Omg, awesome video! I swear, that engine is one of the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard. That's a real truck. I feel this way when I'm driving my dad's old pickup. Hope one day I can take a 359 for a spin too.
that blip at idle get me every time i hear a mechanical cat!
That engine note is the Bollocks. I’ve got my 2 kids a 1980s 359 would make my life complete. Sadly I’d never be able to afford one. Bricklayers doe don’t cover it. But I’d love too drive a Pete 359 down the streets of south London. Beautiful truck thanks for posting 👍👍
Nice Classic 359 Pete. Love the B model cats..
I drove that truck a few years ago before Jay rebuilt the motor. What an awesome rig! Jay, haven't heard from you in a while!
So nice pretty panel. A LONG LIVE PETERBILT! 10-4
This videos is way underrated ... outstanding shifting BT #goals 😆
Thank you 😊
Wow! This is more or less my dream truck!
nice video! wish I could get a chance to even be close to a 359 that nice
Nothing like driving a 359 the first time
So true!
The most beautiful and lovely truck in the whole world. It is not a conventional Pete? , then is not a truck!
Best Truck ever made hands down.
You made my heart swell. Wonderful shifting, and man that Jake made my tummy flutter. I love me those jakes.
I'm very happy to hear that!
Fricking nice truck man
Very nice interior; nice sound
Very sharp truck, I wish I could find a 359 in good shape
Love this one Bro! 😜👍
Thanks Dane! This was one of my older videos and still one of my favorites! I was just talking about you the other day, stay tuned for my weekend video. 👍
@@TheBostonTrucker ok Bud, I’ll be watching. Stay safe out there 😬👍
Great video, shame it's so short. When is this lovely old 359 gonna be for sale?
my buddy has a 358. wonderful truck!
Nice Pete. Nice sounding engine too.
Love those back rims, beautiful truck.
I'm gonna get sick if I don't get one like this and a K-100 aerodyne.
Sucks those days are over.
There's a lot of nice trucks up in Boston.
It reminds me of the Happy Toys truck on Maximum Overdrive
Same here.
Nice azz pete 359 love those old hoods trucks that 425cat sounds good!!!!! like a Man truck !!!!! Wish I could wheel that hood truck you are a lucky dude Mr Boston trucker to have FREINDS to let you wheel and deal keep up the good work gas broker 880hp signing out
Old school, love it!
Damn beauty of a truck thanks
for sharing ;)
Not possible at this time but I did change the thumbnail of this video to a pic of the outside.
...great truck...great video...well done...thanks...
Just wondering, is that a short hood? I thought caterpillars required extended hoods. Thanks.
Pretty sure it's a short hood.
@@TheBostonTrucker Ok, Thanks Man.
damn that thing is nice i miss seeing those in cali
Bro I would want you to fly down to my island and test drive my truck when it's finished build lol🙋♂️👍
Which island? Send me a ticket!
@@TheBostonTrucker grand cayman🙋🏽♂️ check it out when you get the chance bro
nice
Awesome truck
The dude would be me lol and that's how I was born, just a birth defect.
Good sounding engine!
Waltham guy is e&t auto still open over there
Never heard of them.
3406B
I know this video is kinda old but I think I bought this truck. Any way I could get in contact with Jason?
This is Jason Sawyer's Facebook page,you could send him a message if not I could get his number. facebook.com/jason.c.sawyer.5
Pretty sure my boss just brought this truck or one just like it
I sent you the info. Did you get it?
I need to see MORE. Hahahahaha. It's sounds great.
Why to hell only 3:12 min? A vid about this truck, a vid from a cabride in this truck cant be long enough. Built in a camera, couples to a laptop and than make a long, long, long trip and record the trip complete. Verry important: driving at night with this nice red ilumination. I cant get enough from it.
425 right
What cat engine is it exactly? Want to know it for the correct selection in American Truck Simulator for the Peterbilt 359 mod ... it´s sounding amacing .... and looking soooo cool ... the 80s lives. :-)
This was like 10 years ago but I would guess it was a 3406B Cat.
Suena hermoso!
3406B or 3406C? I had a B model once, but it sounds more like a C I saw in a few videos.
Before DEF
Best days were before DEF was ever a thing
Yea back when trucks were trucks another thing bout this truck it has a real cat under the hood is it a 400 or a four and a quarter with a 15 speed behind it
Awesome
Hi, what is the exciting difference to an R-Model Mack?
awesome
Do you use the clutch when you'd shift the gears
Chris Rosa no
@@TheBostonTrucker @&*% NO
Lucky!
I watch this video almost daily........I never get to see it from the passenger seat lol
Cat 3406b?
How large percentage of all those dash instruments and buttons does truckers ACTUALLY ever look at or touch in those Kens and Petes...?) 20? 30? 'Temperatur of driveshaft grease niple #12' ...come ooooooooooon. Take it easy, I'm fan)
Maybe half of them usually but I do check them all periodically.
Iovin the rubber duck on the hood
just gotta ask what happened to dudes hand?
+Istayuplatedrivefast That dude would be me and nothing happened to my hand, I was born that way.
Oh sorry to hear that I thought you would have a gnarly story to tell. I hope I didn't offend you I kind of feel like a dick now for asking.
My brother has the same defect. Nice truck!
No offense taken at all.
+astardustparade my eighth grade math teacher had it too
What engine & tyranny does this 359 have ?
Not sure of the horsepower but it's a CAT with a 15 Overdrive.
3406b
:-)
You like the truck, just because it looks good? got a red lite district finish in the cab.....or something like that? I hope it will run good and do not brake often ,- that is the most important on the truck, not the looks.And You gonna love it, maybe even love it very much, until it goes to the shop.....and then you do not love it so much.TH
Пиззздец его плющит не подетский от этого грузовика!))))))))
