Yeah that was epic👍👍

[@chrisb8371]

I had a co driver years ago hed get mad when Id go in the truck stop and leave the truck idoling. He said a crackhead would steal it. I told him i dont know many crackheads who can drive a 10 speed

[@mcshawnboy]

@@chrisb8371 I was a "Company Man" for years and the Eaton 10 to me seemed better than the stories of my buddies with the fancy new automatics. I saw Jay Leno"s Garage recently in a 1960 Corvair 95 Rampside he bought clapped in his 'hood for $600 clapped as can be. They'd done a twintone red/white job on it and said he loves it 'cuz it is like the truck needs him to run through the gears. Like this he said resto was easy! Just a lot of sandpaper and wiring, no computer and a 4 on the floor with the craziest shifter ever seen when 3 on the tree was a standard. He loves driving it and said it is rated 3/4 ton of hauling. He met a Honda shop that delivery of new 600's up the ramp and said the phone company would walk reels of wire up them. Pretty cool, but nothing like this beast!

[@davidallen1664]

My first introduction to WelderUp creations was a featured diesel rat rod at a show in Vegas, but this truck was in the background and stole the show. I love the creations from your shop, but this one holds a special place in my heart. I have been driving Peterbilts all my life, the first being a 1961 narrow nose, butterfly hood, 5+4, and wedge brakes. Similar to the one from the movie "Duel." And this one speaks to me on a level most people will never understand. Even had one that knocked a hole in both sides of the block in a celebrities driveway. Beautiful work and forever a fan of the steampunk styles of so many of your creations.

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks David, I enjoyed your comment!

[@seekersofrhythm]

This has got to be my favourite of your builds. It says everything about your personality and that of welderup that's why I love the program so much. J

[@xlncy]

Throw the crapper away and you can auction the truck. This is a master piece. A life's work 👍

[@andriesviljoen4309]

You know what man, you've earned yourself a lot of respect points in my book by one thing. No TATOOS! Most guys and gals look like they've been hit with a wet newspaper. I salute you brother. Best to you, from South Africa.

Only one word....COOL. Every Motor Head has their build in mind, that they drag around in their head for years, if that ever Materializes, beautiful stuff happens, and will never sell or Trade.

[@braylondugas6841]

The truck gives you a feeling that you're back in The walking Dead

[@rodfatherschopshop6004]

The thing I love and so appreciate is your level of creativity and detail. When I do builds I always want to do the same thing, so I know it’s not easy to always come up with new ideas and you do! Fantastic work Steve! Keep them coming.

I can honestly say everyone who works at Welderup are some of the most down to earth, most amazing and friendliest people ever. I went to Vegas a few weeks back for my birthday with my mom and the only thing I wanted to do was go to Welderup, I was telling the lady working in the showroom my story and she helped me experience one of the best birthdays ever, including meeting Steve and getting to ride in this amazing semi-truck. If anyone deserves fame or fortune hands down goes to ALL the Welderup crew! Thank you so much!

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Simon, appreciate your comment!

[@theTIVANshow]

@welderup I am a truck drive of 25 years and grow up in the trucking world. That CAT is the best motor ever made. BUT at 2100 RPM YOU should be at 135 MPH to 157 MPH. YOU NEED a 18 speed at a minimum 15 speed for what your doing . With a 18 speed 1200rpm should get you at 90 MPH

[@bigdaddywadeus]

Even the welder has a turbo! I love it!

[@ianm3343]

Wow....... I've seen a lot of beautiful 379s in my day. But this... the paint, the welder, the hole... straight outa of mad max.

Absolutely beautiful truck. The best thing about your builds is that they are well thought out. Everything is functional and purpose built. Not many builders can build something they can actually enjoy and truly use. This truck is simply amazing!!!

Unlike some other builders you have your own vehicles that you keep that mean something to you .as you go through and explain the details you can tell you have a passion for what you build .That's why I like your builds and you keep your stuff .every true car guy does what you do they can give the details .thanks for your videos.

[@user-yw5wr7bv2z]

I went all the way to Las Vegas from Maryland just to visit welderup and check out the coolest peterbilt I've ever seen and the d-rod. I purchased the d-rod hat from your gift shop and it's by far the coolest hat I have. Love it and love welderup.

@@williamortiz3888 Baltimore boy here too, but the city's like the D in hard to find a safe place to be able to keep you safe from the hordes of crackheads. Must've had Yippie parents 'cuz Abbie Hoffman's book "Steal This Book" gave rise to varients on the phrase. Harford County's got potential except for gangs. PA? Quite a ride!

First time I’ve seen a turbo on a welder 🤣😂 👍✌️

[@CR-wc7zp]

The rig is stunning! and then you showed the interior😍. The 425 tires are sick and the paint is unbelievable!

[@OfficialUSKRprogram]

10 speed? Not an 18 speed? Mad respect for not going overkill, too many custom trucks have 18 speed, it's just a workout for no reason. Not unless you're pulling 100,000lb

[@SebastianLong]

Definitely a sweet looking truck, inside and out. Functional too, not some car built to take to car shows and up on stands in the garage the other 364 days of the year. The old ratty look is great on the right vehicles, this truck being one of them. The headlights were a great addition to the overall asthetics of the truck. The leather work is unmatched. All tied together amazingly. The story with the truck is a great addition to the video as well. Many hours of blood sweat and tears into this thing. Can see that. I've been messing around with vehicles since I could walk, but am getting burnt out on them at this point. Working on mine as well as other people's really gets to you. I'm at the point in my life where I don't even bother with vehicles from modding, fixing, etc for so many years. I was tossed into the automotive field because I had no choice. I tried getting out of it many times and always manage to find myself back in it. I think a lot of it has to do with I know vehicles so well and that I can't do some office job. Anywho, great job on that truck and am curious what else you might be working on. Maybe that old Dodge? towtruck I seen?

[@alancrackson1146]

Saw this truck yesterday driving around near Placerville CA, badass truck

[@joel6693]

I wish we had more of those in South Africa instead of the 362E. The 379 body style is insane, I love the attention to detail and workmanship on this build; as well as the ability to use it as a functional daily hauler. Congratulations man!

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Joel. I use it almost everyday. It is useful and fun to drive. Thanks for watching and for your comment.

[@matta3888]

This truck looks similar to one built by Diesel Brothers. Neat truck.

[@lowandslowga]

As a trucker I've always loved this truck and the 359 you built. Great to see what you've done to it. Love the old school steering wheel and also the heavy duty steers. By making it classified as an RV does that make it so you dont have to run log books and get your commercial lisence?

[@maidinbostoninc429]

Logbook is for commercial, if he isn't driving commercial he doesnt need to and only if he is driving more than 150 air miles from his "office" also. It isn't classified as an rv, there are laws that state what is a truck and isn't a truck on certain roads. Like for example in NY and NJ you can't drive on any road that ends with Parkway if you are a truck and a truck is considered anything with 6 wheels and over 10k lbs if I'm not mistaken.

[@brentwalker791]

I agree, the best motor ever built....easy to maintain and rebuild is easy. Awesome truck buddy.

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks 👍

[@jimmycline4778]

33:28 I’ve driven many semis, you can tell it’s got air bags in front just by this footage, you’d be bouncing up and down right here if you didn’t! It looks like it would be a comfortable ride!
