Good Old Dookie. 1973 was the last year for the 307. In 1974, it was replaced by a 350 with a 2 barrel carburetor. In 1977, the 350 with a 2 barrel carburetor was replaced by a 305. Yes the grille, headlight bezels, & front blinker lights are off of a 1973 - 1974 year model. In 1988, the 305 was dropped on the square body models.

@primeredisbest & the OBSs were the last to have the Scottsdale & Cheyenne trim levels. I believe 1992 was the last year for the Scottsdale trim level. When the Scottsdale trim level was first introduced in 1975, it was one option up from the base Custom Deluxe. Before 1975, the Custom Deluxe was one option up from the base Custom. I bet 1975 was a good o year. Gas was under a dollar a gallon, no Covid around, vehicles didn't have recalls unlike ones today, & cabover semis were the king of the roads. Cool times.

Looks pretty good, Jimmy. 😎 Paint markers are great for narrow spaces like the letters. But not ideal for big, wide areas like the "sunburst" portion of the emblem since they don't yield a smooth finish.

I was very surprised to see one because Peterbilt cabovers are super rare these days. The only cabovers I still see on the roads today sometimes are Freightliners & Internationals. A few years ago I saw a Kenworth one which are also super rare these days. Those Ford CL 9000 models are also cool which are those Ford cabovers with the stacked dual square headlights & they're super rare these days too.
