Love the video Chad it's been a while since I seen a truck like that myself it's been a while since I've seen one you don't see old trucks on the road no more like you used to back in the day but when I see them I take my hat off to the guys that still using them

[@1ChadKeegan]

Definitely a first for me!

[@daviddickey4331]

It was nice that you got some photo of that rare tractor. Man to be honest i'm steal that Ol School guy. I see that those blue lights on the inside of that blue truck really makes it pop at night., I'm always digging you equipment because you keep your s**t clean. I wish that someday you will add another truck to your fleet just for the hell of it. i have faith that you could do it. Thank you for putting out some great content for your Channel. Stay Safe & blessed Brother '' C.KEEGAN"S EXPRESSE !!!. Peace-Out.

@@1ChadKeegan your welcome friend

[@prodesign8189]

Been catching little bits of you now that I found your channel. Nice man. I like having you hanging out here on my shop screen while I work on things here. Seems like I'm hanging with my buddy and you crack me up now and then. Great content my friend. I almost want to take a break from this stuff to hit the road! I worked nights driving wrecker for 5 years in the 2000s while working my 40 hour day job in a cubicle everyday getting a few hours of sleep on winter storm nights LONG MTHRFCKING DAYS! But I got such a rush being up all night hauling people out of ditches etc. They were so thankful and I got to play with a big International wrecker as well as a cabover flatbed that absolutely rocked for getting in tight city places. But chat you ear off...just wanted to reach out and say keep it up brother.

[@1ChadKeegan]

Hell Yeah, I honestly don’t know a better feeling than trucking when you’re in a good place with your head space.

[@jonvanhouten8369]

That Cummins sounds so great, luv it!

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks Jon

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video Chad Blue trucks looking good and sounds good. Glad to hear the update on Betty White stay safe Chad.

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks Richard!

[@billloomis7611]

I was thinking about Betty White at the beginning of your video. And then to see the new owner was great. Best to you and Happy Thanksgiving!

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks Bill same to you

[@edvisser3629]

Was wondering what peterbilt designers were thinking when that model appeared...They are different as the nose splits from cab and opens.. A definite different direction from the legendary cabover models.. But if u want a unicorn that's the one... Good to see you back in blue..awesome to have two killer rides..

[@1ChadKeegan]

I think the nose opening was the best feature and the room possibilities

[@edvisser3629]

There is one for sale in ontario ..They don't come up often..and yes a definitely added design

[@1ChadKeegan]

@@edvisser3629 nice

[@Bearthedancingman]

Hey Chad, hope you're doing awesome 😎 the 372 is my favorite truck. If I ever get one I'm going to go visit you with it

[@1ChadKeegan]

I just seen one for sale a few weeks ago I think in Florida or Texas needs interior

[@Bearthedancingman]

@@1ChadKeegan *me excitedly counting the pennies I've saved up*

[@tylerrobinson6158]

Love 372, there is one close to my house I was able to look up in and was awesome. It's a single axle with a Cummins

[@1ChadKeegan]

Awesome could easily be converted

[@sergethecarhauler795]

I have one

[@robertbarenthin8993]

Your truck sounds damn good. Remember when they came out really cool thanks for sharing

[@1ChadKeegan]

No problem Robert

1983 K100, list of loads for the day. Full send, brother. Make that cash.

[@1ChadKeegan]

Banking it Bobby!

[@JamesPretty]

love that blue truck

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks buddy

[@shaunathonhill4784]

My dad owned a372 football helmets when I was younger loved riding in it. Yes they do have tons of room in them

[@1ChadKeegan]

That’s awesome!

[@davidmale1989]

Glad to see you working again Chad. The Blue truck sounds nice. Hope she doesn't give you only more problems this winter, so can finish with glass on the Green truck. Boy those Pete 372 are rare. I think they made only about eight hundered some, over a brief 4 or 5 year period. Keep up the good work as usual. Great videos.

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks David and I’ll park it once salt starts getting slung

[@18wheelsrollin]

That blue kdub sure does sound so good😮‍💨😮‍💨🔥 lol i like the American flag in the bunk

[@1ChadKeegan]

It’s the American Dream being my first truck and breaking away from the man..

[@18wheelsrollin]

@@1ChadKeegan You the man💪🐐

[@privateprivate1865]

I've seen 3 brand new 372's being towed way back in the summer of 1991.. but they had one different which I have yet to find online or anywhere ever since. Instead of having the single square headlights, these had single Round headlights.. And I'm positive, because you can't mistake a 372 for any other body style truck. If you happen to find one online or in your travels with round headlights, please send me a pic❤

O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 Always good to see your cabovers in action! Cabovers Rule!🥰 Glad to hear that Betty White is getting readied for some action. I love that style of cabover Pete! I saw one many years ago! This one seemed to be a little modified, but I just can’t put my finger on what it was. It was said at one time that those cabovers didn’t take off too well. I wonder. What a catch! Thanks! The sunset was quite nice. I plan on checking out the cabovers there at Defiance Trucks. Might have to make a tip up there! Take care my friend?🥰😎✌️

[@1ChadKeegan]

Let me know

[@the.porter.productions]

@@1ChadKeegan 🇺🇸 Sure will let you know if we make that trip up there. We made it to Marion last Wednesday for some train fun at the old train depot. What a blast. I recently picked up a couple of truck trader books & saw the Defiance page. Those are worth a closer look perhaps. Stay tuned on that one. Take care! ✌️

Them 372 Pete's are a lot different truck one of my buddy's drove one for peperig farms out of Aiken south Carolina I was driving a white k 100 400 Cummings he run off way in front of me could not catch him he had a hot wire to the pump it was a company truck had to take the wire off when Ryder was going to service it so they would not know how he turned it up good to see you see you soon buddy

[@1ChadKeegan]

Thanks Tommy good story!

Definitely!

[@donmccord]

I had a chance to buy 2 372’s for 12k just before I bought my k100 one was a runner one was a parts truck to keep the runner running lol both had n14’s in them I kinda wish I’d had done it cause you know we like things that are different than everyone else

[@1ChadKeegan]

Oof 🥵 shocked you didn’t

[@donmccord]

@@1ChadKeegan yeah They we’re just out of my budget of 10k when I was starting up I could have went back to the bank and grabbed the 2k but I found purple 2 days later for $9800 and the rest is history man just crazy to think in 2018 you could find a nice work horse for less than 10k not anymore lol

[@1ChadKeegan]

@@donmccord nope it’ll need 15k to get back on the road 🥴

[@Torsee]

Chad, That has to be a special order Peterbilt! The grill is wide at the top. US versions in the day had straight edged radiators. That may be a Australian import! Very cool!

[@1ChadKeegan]

Awesome 😎 they still around down there?

[@Torsee]

@@1ChadKeegan You bet!

[@1ChadKeegan]

@@Torsee awesome

[@gwstonemason]

@@1ChadKeegan We don't have to many Pete's in Oz, hardly any cabover ones. All are imports from the US. Did meet an Aussie who came back from the US on holidays who owns a 372 "Football Helmet" Pete over there, growing Australian gumtrees for US zoo's. I reckon that maybe just a custom laser cut grille he's made or a NZ International grill modded to suit.

[@1ChadKeegan]

@@gwstonemason nice what’s a gumtree?

[@anthonybremer4820]

Another great video. It was cool to hear the update on Betty white too. Was it weird being back in the blue truck ? Or was it just another day. Keep it real and drive safe our there 👍👍😁

[@1ChadKeegan]

Like riding a bike but it’s not Frankenstein, that’s true old iron and will make a man outta you. Frankenstein is new old iron with the set back axle and rides a lot more comfortable how it’s set up

Sounds great chad

Thanks buddy

[@alextoledo3397]

hey man im a big fan of your videos really hoping that you see this, my father has a kenworth, 1989 K100E just like yours. however i can't find an '89 fan clutch repair/replacement kit whatsoever for it, been looking EVERYWHERE do you have any info on where i could look? Keep up the content and thank you for the videos.

[@1ChadKeegan]

The dealership can’t get anything? What motor are you looking for? Occasionally the Facebook k100 groups are handy but you get a bunch of know it alls and or keyboard warriors that honestly don’t have a clue in them ..

[@alextoledo3397]

@@1ChadKeegan it was for a Cummins bi-cam 400 but it's fine we were able to resolve the issue, and no actually surprisingly not even the dealership was able to find it when we went. Ended up going to cummins and asking but they said those accessories and such are linked to kenworth not them. I found one though.

[@alextoledo3397]

@@1ChadKeegan just a question but any way i'd be able to send you a picture of the truck? Probably not, you're a busy youtuber but my pops is asking and i think you'd like it haha

Chad, check your throttle lock cable, where you put the little U bolt around it. Might be pinched there.
