What a beautiful truck to restore! Love trucks from that era and older. Hearing her run is music to my ears, thanks for sharing!

It'll be good to see this girl come back to life. Will be following as she shapes up.

Looks to be about an 86 or 87 model 359
Deffently worth restoring. Neat old truck👍 That cat sounds awesome!

[erikwilson]

Sounds real good ready to see more updates my guy!

[kman-misu]

That old truck was definitely a looker back in its day.

See if you have air at the tank in question. If not you may have a check valve stuck at the tank or in the tank. Check that the tank is not full of water. It will be the tank with lines going directly to the parking brakes. Hope this helps.

Got to love those kitty cats under the hood. She sounds really good. You have a long way to go but it will pay off in the end. Thank you for bringing us along in this journey.

Thanks for saving an other ol 359...putting a big hole in my '85 now, not hard very time consuming, first step is getting the big hole rings, find them used, new ones are bout $700 each from pete.

[hankhill]

Engine sounds pretty good, hopefully everything else is going good for ya, Ol truck definitely has potential, but first problem that jumps out at me is some super trucker musta drove that Pete - gonna be a wiring nightmare with some of the extra lights somebody done put on there ( on step boxes and sleeper extenders, etc) the cab and sleeper panel lights are cool but somebody took it overboard on the lights, but really cool project, love the videos!

[rags-fvko]

I’m happy to hear it run..I’d keep the small hole. And Remove the extra battery boxes

[hernandez.]

Trucks are kind of like people .

[robertironside]

Nice got the air pressure going and everything. Looking up! Sounds pretty good too. Should be hauling loads in no time! Sweet! Looks like the kingpins may need looking into.. bushings? Rough summer to be working outdoors on them though [so hot eh?].
