Fred could do this professionally, full time. He certainly has a knack for this. I love what he has done.

[@glennoliphint8691]

Fred The 10 year old did really good picking the colors and the stripe design 👌you can tell that he pays attention to his dad! He's going to be good at decking out the trucks! Rock on Fred!

[@michaellane4250]

I love the old skool vibe. The only issue I have with the 389's is the headlights. I think especially since Fred wanted old skoolish looks on it that you guys should change the headlights to the older era style lights. Update them to bright LED's but leave em old skool in appearance. I believe then you'd have something really sweet.

[@jasonmyers3847]

I'm thinking Bill has some work to do on it once it shows up at his business.

[@chrisharkins8708]

Looks like an old Freightliner factory paint job but on a Peterbilt. Love it. Love the factory old school paint schemes. Don't matter if it's a Peterbilt, KW or a Freightliner etc.. Can't wait to see it when it's all done..

[@just_inolredneck8319]

I thought the paint scheme/lines do resemble a freightshaker. 😅🤷‍♂️🔥🙌 definitely looks good also!

[@HammerPowered]

That is such an old school look and I love it. Fred definitely picked well, and a real credit to Mark and Eli doing the work and making it happen. I know I couldn't keep the lines that straight and clean.

[@jerrywhitworth316]

I enjoyed the process of painting the stripes. This truck is going to be very nice.

[@lylechapman9757]

Now that was a great video Brian👍🏼 Those guys do a fantastic job. I love that colour scheme it will definitely be a sharp looking machine. And congratulations on the new shop 👍🏼

[@franklackie2469]

This tri color strip is totally awesome. ❤

[@Hoggystyle43]

The Peterliner looks pretty nice 👌🏻, nice choice Fred

[@P-J-W-777]

Has a nice old school vibe to it. It looks good.

[@user-bo4jp4lk6l]

Nice. The orange, red, yellow on black. Gives me vibes from the chopper in magnum P.I. !

[@duanetommy5178]

That truck looks absolutely awesome. I like it particularly because it uses the same colours as the Vancouver Canucks Black Skate jersey.

[@LargeCarLife]

It looks sooo good! 💯👏 I would put the emblems back on for sure. Heck if it was mine I would even keep the front bumper, just add some yellow diagonal lines on the corners. And 5” exhaust, RLK Shiber bowtie visor, chromed steel wheels, stainless full fenders, 359 headlights…

[@FTY6150]

LOVE THIS LOOK SWEET LARGE KAR !!

[@doughamm5590]

Love the old school look. Need more out there like it

[@vernfrederick5025]

I just have one thing to say I LOVE IT

[@sidgipson7267]

You guys are true artists! Your precision and attention to detail are second to none. Excellent color combination with the primary colors of red and yellow merging into the secondary orange. Laid over black really makes it pop! The finish is incredible! No tape lines and unbelievably smooth and glassy clear coat! Great job, guys!

[@travisstokes2037]

I agree old school stripes needs oldschool 359 headlights

[@richardevansjr1758]

Great looking paint job on the pete. I enjoyed looking at the process on painting the multi color stripes. Good job guys👍👍

[@johnzirbes5460]

Mark and Eli work like hand in glove together.Please make some more vids of the set-up layout...

[@cliff4695]

I like the color scheme, just think its a little backwards. Black truck. Red frame (since the engine is red), main part of stripes would be red, with the red tail lights in it, than orange and yellow. Now its a black truck, orange frame with a red engine and red or clear lights in a yellow stripe. Just seems a little chaotic to me is all. The stripe design is badass and fits the truck perfect!

[@johnniebellamy5912]

One of the sharpest paint scheme I ever seen

[@arrowkart4j]

Got to pinstripe it to finish that off. Nice. Fred going to be so happy.

[@billbarnes9718]

Great video. Great paint job. I liked the time lapse.

[@ronniebenoit4081]

Real nice Clark 👌

[@BennettT9]

It needs matching painted rear fenders. Black Fiberglass with matching stripes. Looks good

[@jeffbrown8968]

It’s great to watch people do their craft that the rest of us find mind bottling “VGG” reference. I love this content.

[@grantbradford8960]

Love the old school paint job I hope to see it at y’all’s truck show

[@dannyburris2978]

That is very cool job on the Pete!!! We have a Fitzgerald Peterbilt in Fancygap VA!!! Alot of nice bottomley trucks in there!!!

[@6.4ram]

Old skool cool! 🔥

[@davidsimons6881]

For a young fella Fred has a great vision. Can’t wait to see it complete.

[@Nich_Pavelow]

Brian you look exhausted man!!

[@chrisoo8998]

Yesss more paint videos 😍😍

[@jeffclairday9807]

Nice video. Shows how much work is involved just for the stripes. Also like that you are putting out more videos. That will definitely help you get to 100,000.

[@SEMICasualShow]

Thanks!

[@scottswartz6619]

That truck is Awesome

[@toddfolyer6948]

Bill and Fred have awesome taste of semis and color

[@atctraveler6218]

Probably one of my favorites of multiple color builds..

[@just_inolredneck8319]

I’d go with the old school emblems.. and either the single round headlights or the double would look good too.. 🤷‍♂️ either way Fred definitely likes the ol school looks. And that’s really something most has forgotten about.. 💯 great job Fred and the painters! Lines and stuff can b the most tedious hair pulling, beating your head against the wall kinda deal lol😅. Definitely have done some paint work back n the day! (If I was still doing it I probably wouldn’t have quit smoking lol)

[@ThePeterbiltrucker]

I like content like this

[@tracyshrable4224]

Pretty cool process! I’m digging the old school look.

[@SEMICasualShow]

Thanks!

[@mitchelllarson4794]

Awesome content as always.

[@moondog3162]

Interesting color combo........trying to keep those lines straight would have put me right in a mental institute 🤪🤪

[@jerrybaldwin7543]

HELL YEAH BROTHER might be my number one

[@brianbichanich6085]

The orange stripe should have been the widest color to match the frame better

[@bush600r2]

It does look awesome. Love the combination of colors. They go together perfectly

[@dallasgrant]

The video format was cool, to see the process. I was going to mention the red and orange kind of blending a little, I personally would have gone with a brighter orange but maybe it is and it's just YT messing with how it actually looks, either way it's cool and different, definitely what I'd like to see more than plain old trucks.

[@markcunningham3205]

I love it!! as far as the emblems i think the colors should run through them!! Just a thought.

[@ballsoutperformance]

Looks great. Love the color combo and the finish looks good. I would be concerned about peeling on the edges due to the fact that the entire panels havent been recleared.

[@marc7uk244]

That’s amazing great job 🇬🇧

[@mitchelllarson4794]

Looks awesome. Tell Fred is has a cool truck.

[@timblackmon3581]

Very cool.. thanks for showing the process.. need alot of patience for the taping and masking..

[@brianherron5400]

Nice colors 👌

[@corywatson3942]

Sweet! Yes on the emblems!

[@kristieharrell9200]

Yes thank u thanks thank u I have been commenting wanting to know about Fred's trk I'm can't wait see final build is his truck going in gis dad fleet of trks or like the 389x be something just for fred

[@SEMICasualShow]

Oh, it’s going straight to work!

[@jeffrainey131]

I think since the holes for the emblems are still there you should just go ahead and put them on. Maybe surprise Fred with custom emblems with designed by Fred on them. Maybe.

[@bobbieb7146]

Very nice old school cool

[@uliwehner]

sweet pete. sweet stripes.

[@amsoiladam]

Looks great

[@chrisrussell8903]

I'm digging it! The colours are really nice.The biggest downside to 389s are the headlights.😔 J hook lights should be factory. Great video.

[@chrisrussell8903]

@OfficialSEMIcasual OH YA?!?!

[@briantofflemire7056]

Looks great, just needs some nice pinstriping

[@patrickdubois9157]

Love it Fred as good taste and maybe to be unique put the emblem but painted to match i never see that done before

[@richardblakley8139]

needs a small dividing and outlining stripe around each color would kick it off even more . maybe a silver , purple , green

[@ralfhiller9043]

It needs old school headlights!!

[@sambryant5662]

What does Fred say about the side hood emblems? I rather enjoyed seeing the painting process, and hope that you'll do more videos like this.

[@jakegriep3965]

I really do like it, but I feel the stripes should have gone to the fenders. But great work!

[@MarkMiller-nl6ud]

Good video.

[@muckrunner308]

Painted air intakes, 6 inch angle cut stacks, 359 headlights

[@jasonthompson8668]

That truck is really nice paint too he should keep the emblems on the hood

[@dazzleyd]

That looks awesome 👌 are you going to do a pin stripe to separate the colours?

[@stowaway475]

Yup you gotta let the paint flash

[@huggy1712]

Awesome paint job love it can’t wait to see the truck done take care stay safe G.Whyte

[@ronaldsirochmanjr1112]

Should do an emblem in black chrome

[@thehouseofhorsepowerautobo4506]

That's a killer looking truck you guys do a great job! When you guys cut and buff those how do you guys cut and buff around the rivets if they get a little drip around them without sanding the paint off the rivet itself?

[@frankstrohmyer9106]

Nice color combination. What happened to Fred's cabover?

[@tekman196]

Retro 80’s

[@Nich_Pavelow]

Retro skripes!!!!! 😝🤙🏼

[@threeangelsdiesel]

Pull the red out of the logos and put them back on

[@willmix5044]

I thought they’d use a laser level

[@bryantorres4716]

What do you guys think about painting the dash panels yellow?

[@jasonmyers3847]

If it was me, I'd just do a stripe in the frame color. That would have been simple and, done. I'm not going to, though. I will never have $300,000+ in my possession. I would have painted the stripes down to the fenders, at least.

[@christopherchristman1023]

Needs a Vera shield to go with the look

[@chriswalshtv]

Hey what’s up bros how y’all doing much love

[@stowaway475]

3 coats deep of the first color then 3 coats of the second color

[@richardmosher6602]

Is the bulldog Cummings off

[@rylanfowler02]

Okay so why dont yall build and restore more older trucks like 379 Peterbilts with good C 15 cat

[@Zero-kc3ch]

Or rectangle ones

[@jacksonsparrow8865]

Do you guys only do peterbilts? Any westernStars?

[@Nich_Pavelow]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SEMICasualShow]

Right now, our main focus is just a peterbilts

[@adamtheede2575]

will it be straight piped?

[@SEMICasualShow]

It’s getting Dynaflex 7in stacks 👍

[@scottash1438]

put them back on but inset them in black rather than red

[@dickhartley7090]

When is Fred's scooter getting painted?

[@SEMICasualShow]

Oh it’s getting some paint too!

[@amazigh1789]

you didn't strip the old paint ?? I am confused ...

[@huskerboy3471]

Hi

[@curtfenslau3645]

I’m never normally negative but I think you guys missed Fred’s vision on this one, I have pics of the FLC he had in mind.

[@screamingeagle4525]

All that labor and time to strip it is very expensive,it probably be cheaper to repaint the whole truck

[@bobbyelliott1911]

That did not look like base coat. The stripes looked like they were using single stage and then clearing over that

[@Zero-kc3ch]

Leave emblem off

[@carlandrewaycock1018]

ANDYAYCOCK😍😍🤩🤩🥰🥰😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜🤪🤪😜😜

[@chuckmyers3517]

Emblems off

[@danielhofer7386]

$10,000 probably didn't pay for the painting of those stripes.

[@andremenard2933]

2023 why paint, so expensive
