    You'd better look in your damn mirrors instead of blaming the guy behind you for smoking the tires from fenders rubbing.

    Blaming his ignorance on someone else in perfect Bruce style. Where was your pre trip Bruce!
  • @countryboy99656
    Can’t blame Ryan for that one Bruce, operator is responsible for the rig. Sweet truck

    I'm 47 years old I remember seeing those old cabovers running the roads all the time, seeing that one just brings back so many memories. When I grew up I wanted to drive a cab over but I never did, spent 20 years over the road and never drove a cab over, the oldest truck I ever drove was a 79 W900 with a 13 speed and a big cam Cummins

    I put power steering on my 1977 352. I used a power steering box from a Freightliner cab over. I made an adapter plate to bolt the box to the frame, so it looked nice in factory. Use the standard power steering pump and mounted the power steering reservoir in the back Behind the cab where the original would be

    I'm old and these were new when I started running big loads. Good catch 😊

    I had the same truck, and I do believe you have a 76 there, not a 78. It steers easy enough, you Do Not need power steering!! Great video, this retired old driver appreciates it. I drove from 1974 until 2004.
  • Glad to see a genuine smile on you bro💯 excited to see where this truck goes
  • Thanks for purchasing this from my Dad . Glad to add you and watch what you do with it !

    Starting to see these old trucks in beautiful shape on the 401 in Canada , the ones I’ve seen are absolutely beautiful , much much respect these brokers bringing these old trucks back to life

    Always loved those old Semi Trucks, better then the ones we have in today's culture
  • Back in the day, my Dad drove a Diamond Rio. Loved riding with him. Good memories.
  • @robertbrake9927
    I would keep the exhaust on that it has . And fresh paint. And definitely do those personal touches you listed .It’s definitely a sweet truck. Ryan is learning so don’t be to rough on him . He’s a good young man.
