I didn't catch the year of the old Ford F150, but it's gotta be a 78-79 model with those square headlights.... The interior shots at 18:35 took me straight on back to my childhood and my dad's 1977 single cab. Beautiful memories. And that interior had common elements all the way through the 1991 model year - the skinny metal turn signal, the manual window winders, hexagonal plastic door lock indicator knobs, etc. Good content, Jax - I love the connection you feel to the past. Edit - just noticed the license plate at the end of the video, lol

[@AMTruckin]

The black truck is Awesome , flat top , double windshield and all , absolutely worth to bring back and haul some bulls with it ! 🙌👌💯💯

[@tomkelley8313]

Excellent!!

[@KenworthmanJRS]

man both them trucks need to be brought back to life!

[@DanielWest-q7w]

Good to know that you are Christian people may God bless you all in Jesus name

[@cobraspottedwolf8791]

C'mon Tuna. Let's get it rolling!!!

[@charlesmeyer3691]

That’s a solid truck definitely worth getting it back to life

[@aninajones8924]

The ford pickup truck!

[@cargotoolshop5319]

I have a 1992 FLD120, N14, flat top, I absolutely love that truck, it's been off the road for ten years, I want to see it roll so bad, my plan is to have it going in two years, and park my century, stay strong guys

[@patrickmcconkey]

Got to keep those classics alive!

[@terryyoung3895]

Smart man with the series 60

[@dougd3832]

The old Ford pickup brought back memories. My Dad bought a 1978 Ford F100 brand new with 3 in the tree. Had it many years.

[@annagarner1280]

❤

[@annagarner1280]

Put Blu 🐃 back on the road

[@jeffwebb8208]

Cool old trucks. Both of them.

[@doug-fisher]

I’m really liking the big condo sleeper, but that black Freightshaker has my vote. You talk about nostalgia and smells bringing back the memories, the one thing that always gets me is the little hanging tree fresheners. The spice scent to be exact. My dad always had that one on his truck and to this day that smell brings me back.

[@Rooster_1850]

Man Tuna you gotta get that thing going....she's a sweet rig.

[@Successfullybearded]

The ole Tuna Melt Special Edition! Fix’r up!

[@danschoenbaum9120]

I've got 4 million. Miles on my old fld and it's by far the best truck I've ever had.

[@parker1ray]

I am 61 and mom and dad both had trucks in the 70's. I remember all the old freightliners, petes, and kwoppers from that era! I loved the old Mack super liners and Cruise liners

[@figgiefigueroa7372]

Nice freightliner ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@7viewerlogic670]

Blue Buffalo is awesome! Yes that is a rare spec FreightShaker.

[@kellykonoske91]

Man! I miss my 79 Ford 4x4

[@wdjones4735]

Freddy is such a good sport🤣His mind was wandering in nostalgia😳

[@davidsuch5071]

I enjoyed & I understand your feelings of bringing back the past. Things seemed simpler & maybe better then. Dave

[@TrevorChenier]

Awesome once again brother!!! That’s what life is most definitely all about. The Nostalgia of where & what ya come from and of course, where ya been. Lovn, cherishn & sharin your roots. Awesome seeing wee man Freddie out with ya experiencing it too. 🤟🏽

[@life_ontheranch]

Memories are priceless. It’s nice to still be able to go back and reminisce of things from your childhood. Now just go make an offer on the dang truck or trade or something.

[@travisstoneking4049]

Another nice thing about those Freightliners is the dash is all the same from like 84 to 07.

[@bradsnyder-HighSprings_Fl.]

Great Video! Thanks

[@trickster6831]

I was curious about the same thing, any NASCAR action this year? That content was awesome. And YES!!! get the BLUE BUFFALO going!!! She's a Beauty!!!

[@nada7.077]

Come on Holton!! Blue Buffalo definitely deserves to be resurrected and back on the road again. They just do not make trucks like old Blue Buffalo!! Such a beautiful, iconic truck!!

[@realwildwildwest]

Unfortunately no on the nascar 🙃 I need to talk about it in an upcoming video. It was loads of fun, but just not able to do it again for a few reasons.

[@7viewerlogic670]

@@realwildwildwest Sorry to hear that, those videos were a lot of fun!

[@trickster6831]

@@realwildwildwest Bummer deal, but what a AWESOME experience for sure.

[@maxx21147]

Aww... That's a shame ! - Your NASCAR hauler driver videos were more entertaining than the races themselves !! I Just turned 77 years-of-age, ran OTR 1977-2009, & still miss 'The Road'. Your 'productions', take me back to a better time in trucking. THANKS...@@realwildwildwest

[@ryanstaysloaded]

Jax, a true man on nostalgia

[@Ealonso_96]

Would love to see blue buffalo on the road!! They just don’t make them how they use to

[@Thom1973]

at timestamp 16:53 i think Tuna as you call Holton should do as he suggested and start a GoFundMe to get it rebuilt

[@StarlightPerformanceHorses]

I saw you going thru Great Falls with a load of cattle the other day ❤

[@7viewerlogic670]

Black FreightShaker is cool, get it bought!

[@realwildwildwest]

Imma try!

[@richcarey9883]

That flc would be a great addition to your fleet

[@jodysumruld2389]

Totally worth it! It’s gota hat rack !! How can you NOT!!👌🏻👌🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 “Merica “

Tuna ….! Ya gotta man ….! And old trucks really need to be out working that’s how they stay alive..

[@longhaulr4live]

Good luck getting your truck

[@josephvantreeck2989]

Nice! Take it on.

[@ricarddaggett5390]

You should get it up and running!

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

Jax I really enjoyed the old stories you guys were telling I was thinking about my first days on the farm on tractors and trucks. I hope you get that freightshaker alot of potential for ya for sure.🇺🇸👍

[@awesomecreationschannel]

I loved this nostalgic trip! You didn't say if the old boy would sell it? What a cliffhanger! 😂 Did anyone else catch Holtons sister comment?? 😅 I had a screw in a motorbike tyre years ago, I couldn't afford a new tyre so I unscrewed the offending screw, put silicone on it and screwed it back in. It lasted the rest of the tyres lifetime 😁👍

[@realwildwildwest]

Hahaha Holten always has off camera zingers 🤣🤣

[@Lstn2urmama]

Love the sleeping truck when mad story ..l when about the same age 3-4 yrs old something happened on the farm yard and I went to the chop building and closed door and got to comfortable and fell asleep...adults were calling for me and trying to offer bribes even in a panic got neighbors to help and 2 hours later found me asleep in the chop building curled up... so the story went...I Never heard a thing

[@hughstephenson2957]

When I had my trucking company i built a stretched 73 359 triple drive Pete for heavy haul. Twin turbo V12 Detroit, 18 DO trans and lockers on all 3 axles.. selectable..

[@bobmoroney3643]

I would buy it in a truck drivers minute. Such a classic non EDL truck.

[@jrkriegar5297]

Great video guys! Love hearing the old stories about back when... as a kid I got to ride in a couple of those model Freightliners in the mid-80s and still love them. And for the Ford I have a red 1978 myself.

[@BuckInchuteranch1]

He needs to rebuild that ol’ blue.

[@facelikedog]

Great ep.

[@tomkelley8313]

Fix it up and drive it!! That tractor will run and run and run!!

[@slimturner9711]

I love that flattop freight shaker 👍. As a retired truck driver, I've driven a lot of rigs. Need to get them rigs back hual'n. Thanks for taking us along memory lane brother

[@jeffreyadams8811]

Great video I love the old trucks and stories that go with them.

[@brianstroud6729]

My first real truck driving was a KW with a 60 series Detroit and it was a beast. Hauling milk from dairies to the plants. I always liked pushing things to the limit back then. Not so much anymore! Great video!!

[@richardlackey8423]

Reminds me of the phantom 309 with the Wild Wild West on her love your videos brings make some of my memories

[@johnlowe276]

Build that classic Ol truck my pop ran in the 70’s 80’s 90’ early 2000 it’s a beautiful truck please build that buffalo

[@CalebTschetter-xk7iv]

Hey Tim Gentry from Gentry and Sons trucking on utube is really into old freighliners… he might want that thing

[@drifter8530]

Dang, the truck brings back memories. I started driving in 86, and that style truck was a Cadillac, a bull haulers caddy. I ran with quite a few. That was when trucking was still fun, a good job, not like now a days. Some of the new trucks are good-looking, and some go with the new wave driver.

[@leavitttrucking1]

I owned and drove both just like those. I sure miss the old days

[@jeanries434]

Always relevant; always interesting; always an entertainer. Thanks for taking us along.

[@realwildwildwest]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@TheF1shh]

Swappin out a B model cat for a 60 series is pretty sacrilege. I know the majesty that is the 60 Series fuel mileage, but a 3406b is probably the king of mechanical over the road diesels.

[@TheGorillaExhibit]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@RB-cz5jn]

Paper log haul what you want.

[@GCCGarage]

Did someone say Freightliner restoration content?! That’s our bread and butter. Feel free to check out the channel, we’ve got an FLC in progress and have done a couple FLD’s in the past year or two. Did I mention we love cabover’s too! 😂 Really enjoy the content, keep up the hard work.

[@stormyweather9054]

The brake saver is the way to go on a B model Cat . Down side is they require "resealing" about every year or so. The factory Jake's are pretty weak on 3406 B - unless your running the "super Jakes" ( they don't make them anymore ) used rebuilt is the only option - if you can find them . As the saying goes " IF IT AIN'T A CAT - ITS A DOG " ..

[@Brd_ddy73]

I think you should resurrect the Blue Buffalo!!!! Do it Holten

[@KeithRoyer-d1p]

Man, that black freightliner is sweet. I hope you can get it. It would be nice to see the ole girl shined up and back on the road.

[@michaelmclachlan4278]

Dad had a 1950,s gmc gravel truck .the oll push start peddle on the floor. At 8 I was riding in a hays gravel truck. That was a beast.

[@gaelenecole4053]

Awwww ❤ thanks for the trip down memory lane 😍😁😇

[@RobertoLoewen-bn3kq]

Blue buffalo needs to be rebuilt and put back on the road

[@unclebuzz6913]

She's a looker.... I remember the 1974 Mack "Rubber Duck" ,I thought it was awesome. I grew up in South East Texas .Saw all kinds of Heavy Duty oilfield semis. Being a pipefitter and Not having to drive those older late 40s thru late 50s .I thought they were beautiful.

[@joerusso9990]

You should get it up and running and drive it nothing like old school

[@howardhendrickson2933]

Rebuild it and get 'er back on the road!!!!!!!!

[@howardhendrickson2933]

Myself personally, i would keep that old mechanical cat and avoid the electronics. That putty tat will pull for days and never tire

[@donaldswark4588]

Close the window on old black and yes try buy old black and Buffalo blue .

[@brettmorton7365]

Go on.. get it.. you won't.. 😂 And fix that tyre on the ol' ranger 😂

[@realwildwildwest]

I’m am gonna try hard, but I have a feeling I may have to wait some years before he ll cut it loose 😩

[@brettmorton7365]

@realwildwildwest ah well its not like you haven't got other projects to go on with 🤣🤣

[@danequalls2926]

That ol fld120 deserves to be back on the road. If he don't fix it find out what he'd take for it I'll come get it.

[@bruceajohnson6437]

The Freight liner might be 84 because of the small emblem because I drive an 84 300 inch wheel base 425c cat 15spd double over

[@josephboley]

Hello there bud 👍✌️🙏🙏

[@tattooRGBharley]

I know how you feel Jax I had a 1986 GMC 1 ton duly single cab for 21 years and I miss that truck so much.

[@mattcrowell7945]

I am old because that blue buffalo doesn't seem like an old truck to me lol! It looks like it is in decent shape for its age! I was in my prime in the early 1990's

[@curtfenslau3645]

I got a black 88 FLC identical to that one, red interior also but it has the BC4 in it

[@jimhoward4749]

I used to drive the old fld set back axle to Cali, and back ....also drove a 83 kw cab over single axle pulling pups

[@Dennismelnychuk]

Why on gods green earth would you take a cat out and put in a Detroit? Cat is where its at! ❤

[@drewl4762]

I love the old flc's they are cool trucks

[@DaPuddin78]

If tuna gets blue buffalo back on the road no short jokes for like a month😁 and man Jac I would love to see you get that black freightshaker. Memory lane for me right there first truck I drove was a burgundy flat top fl 3406b cat 13spd nobody could tell me anything when I got behind wheel that old truck

[@javieraviles6314]

A little bit at the time I get done.

[@MattBerg-t3w]

They both need new rails and fixed up then run them they are both large cars of their time but rebuild the s60 and try to find a pre 99 motor and tranny for the black one 18 SPD of course but they are both beautiful rides and need to be brought back and run them

[@johnhale9892]

Bring the Blue Buffalo back to life Tuna.

[@brddukaty7460]

Get the BBuffalo on road again…..

[@strykerwillcost95]

like em both. Would want Jax to teach about NA truck from Freightliners to Western Stars and anything in between. Sadly as a person from EU i have only seen handful of Peterbuilts longnose and a Freightliner argosy (suprised that Jax doesn't have the youngest US cabover)

[@throttle_down_beers_up]

Not doing nascar this year! That stinks gonna miss that content!

[@danielyelle1070]

Those old Freightliners are bulit proof trucks. Old is the way to go as far as am concerned. New trucks you just drive until the check engine light comes on. Then throw another two thousand dollars at it . If your lucky. Have a great weekend.

[@johndean2925]

Do you think it is possible that the Guy Up Above puts souls in certain trucks :+)???

[@Andrewstephensonn]

I would like to see a video on your business taking through rates and especially insurance and interested in going trucking for my self but lots of unknown stuff I will need to untangle.

[@realwildwildwest]

That’s a good idea.. especially now, trucking is going into a dark time… be very careful.

[@kimblerymeacham4529]

I hope he at least bought the back truck 😊

[@realwildwildwest]

I’m sure hoping to!

[@travisstoneking4049]

I bought 97 Fld out of western Kansas and the frame looks brand new only problem is the clear coating is coming off the hood and top of sleeper.
