Stunning old Peterbilt.  Very well done.

Great looking Pete cabover, back in the day, most were long haul fleet trucks, PIE and Navajo liked to run these with big drom boxes and super long frames. Excellent paint job and detail work, would look sharp with a set of doubles!

Beautiful build! You captured the vintage look! I have one of those to get to one day. Seeing yours makes me want to start on it.
