Love how fast the old mechanical fuel systems start. That old cat sounds great.

[@RobGriffiths]

Seeing it back out of the shop into the sunlight must have been an amazing feeling :)

[@leroymickle2998]

I do have to say, It's even more beautiful outside under the sun. Great job on the project, can't wait to see it pulling a load down the highway. Again great video..

[@meganostra6633]

Man, y'all built a damn good looking cabover! Thanks for keeping the cabover legacy alive. Fine job!!

[@olik136]

I would say NA is actually keeping the cab-behind-engine legacy alive, everywhere else cabovers are the norm since the 70s

[@billtheunjust]

I love how fast it starts. So many diesels crank slow and for a long time.

[@willb3018]

There is something about those old cabovers that really appeals to me...and apparently many others. This is an especially nice one.

[@Disis960]

Living in Kentucky most of my life I've had my fair share of mud dauber nest being a pain in the neck. They're a type of wasp Rich. As a commercial truck tech I was cringing most of the video when talking about the air systems and the trans air lines lol Glad you were able to take her the show. It's a beautiful truck Rich.

[@joeblow2063]

Purrrrrs like a kitty should. I appreciate that every time I start my 3406.

Nice gonna be a great day. Start my morning with a coffee and a live feed with DeBoss. Hell yeah!!!!

Guess I’m procrastinating ATLEAST until 12 now…

Just a thought ... what about making an "X" with the brace on exhaust... that has always bothered me when I had mine .... just say'n LOVE the truck great job !!!

[@thalleshoward3962]

I'm impressed. You guys did a awesome job. It looks like a brand new truck.

[@AdderoYuu]

They really did, I'm astonished how well it turned out. Especially the paint on the frame and the body, its gorgeous

[@williammayhew2783]

Know what I'm doing for my lunch break, solid timing 👌

[@omegaseamaster1550]

You'll never make it as an Entomologist Rich ;) And yes, we have Mud Daubers in Canada. Mud dauber is a name commonly applied to a number of wasps from either the family Sphecidae or Crabronidae which build their nests from mud; this excludes members of the family Vespidae, that are instead referred to as "potter wasps". Mud daubers belong to different families and are variable in appearance. BUT, you make on hell of a wrench Sir.

[@crouchsonsfarm2884]

Well I learned me something today about wasps

[@devonross5825]

Always knew them by dirt daubers

[@omegaseamaster1550]

@@crouchsonsfarm2884 It was a joke guys... sheesh, besides this is a cool project that not everyone gets to build and document. 100X better content than OCC ever was or will be. Thanks for the entertainment Rich.

[@hayesshaffer2157]

This is the best build you have done to date

[@deborahchesser7375]

This is one of my dream’s, a nice shop to build big trucks and everything else. Takes deep pockets to build with the big boys, but they can pay for themselves, that’s a good return on the investment.

[@matthawkins3666]

Kentucky here. Dirt daubers is what we call them. They are super annoying but harmless. Coolest build on KZbin!

[@bobjohnson7797]

I just ran across this video and your channel. Very nice to see someone start projects and not abandon them. It looks like your heart is in it for the right reasons and not just trying to be a wanna be KZbin star like Tim Gentry.

[@JamesPretty]

For me, this whole truck is Pretty Kool, but the fact you put a cabover on a non cabover frame is just crazy amazing I love big jobs that aren't supposed to work but im not kidding that seemed like it was going to be near impossible to get it to work.. now I want to do it rather than do a frame stretch. doubt I will but sure looks like a ton of fun.. appreciate you having the "stones" to attempt it and knock it out of the park... Rite On!!!

[@mrnic3guy305]

You have a bad ass kwhooper...with the 3406b cat good job bro

I just love the mad Genius that went into this truck loved watching it come together

[@tomcleghorn4005]

WOW what a beauty! It’s even better out in the sunshine.

[@SimonTrent8000]

ive been plugging away at my new engine and transmission for my MR2 all winter and about to put it back into the car. Your channel and great ambition has helped me push forward in my own projects. Hope to one day drive up from New Brunswick and check out the shop someday.

[@ForeverNeverwhere1]

Oh, I think we already saw it running, Rich. I think this is my favourite build of yours. The Audi was good, but not this good.

Literally he has the same personality and humbleness In these videos and real life. Met him today at the Carlisle car show in Pennsylvania. Thanks again Rich!

Thanks man

I just found one a 74 with 110000 original miles a family friend has had it parked since 80 and he is finally ready to let me get it!!

[@vankeithbarnes1333]

You did an excellent job getting that Kenworth k100 cab over up and running. After it's been restored, and it's parts replaced, you rebuilt it from the ground up. Now All that remains is for you to get all the lights working make sure the brake lights are functional and it passes all US-DOT specifications and safety standards.

[@danielhoffman7576]

ONE HELL OF A JOB!! GOOD JOB RICH!

[@stevemcrichards8768]

I don't know a lot about HD trucks but, I know what I like when I see it and this Kenworth is an absolute beauty, a bonny and potentially a joy forever.

[@this_guy6965]

My uncle was a trucker for 27 years before he passed and man, he would have loved this truck. Nice job

[@JamesYoung61]

I do love this truck refurbishment, I hope that you give the interior similar love that the outside has, it will be a cool rig to tow your projects to events with.

[@FoolOfATuque]

Who doesn’t love a little poke yoke? The bugs are called dirt dobbers. I’ve never encountered them anywhere in Canada. I’ve been to Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and am an Albertan. They look like wasps, but don’t bite. They’re everywhere here in Texas. Such a cool project and I’m really happy to see it rolling now (even if I saw it rolling on the other video lol)

[@zoidberg444]

I can't wait to see this one fully finished off and what you do with the interior. This truck is a beast. It looks amazing from the outside.

[@BeerHunter1953]

What a great looking cab over. Fell in love with them back in the 70’s. A company in Windsor ON, ICL,had a broker division and those guys used the K100’s almost exclusively at one time hauling steel coils out of Hamilton. Classy then classic now. Great work and great attitude. Love the channel

[@jimdieseldawg3435]

I reckon you have sufficient rear lighting there, Rich 😁 Man, she preeedy and she sounds great 😎 Wishing you good luck with your driving tuition and test!

[@jeffpowers2916]

you built one bad ass truck Rich!! nice job

Massively impressed with how much you all achieve as a team. How much longer would this project have stretched into the future without the sef-imposed Motorama deadline as a big carrot/stick?

[@750masseyman]

My son Jason met you guys at the Toronto show and said he had a great visit with you guys. It's nice to see the good impression that you put on the younger generation of new mechanics coming on, that they can have something nice if they work hard and get outside and do it. Thanks for taking the time and talking to the kids from Napanee.

[@123suzukisamurai]

Yes. It’s not getting done. Awesome vid

[@tomwinkle1597]

Dirt dobbers! Great video. When you decided to swap to 13 I was wondering why. The are great if you run the mountains a lot. I have the 3406e with a 10 and I love it. I mainly run Texas now. It will do 102 and shifting a lot is highly over rated.

[@tomwinkle1597]

@Remington Steel mine is turned up to 550, but I have never put it on a dyno. It does seem to go around most trucks up the steep grades.

Kentucky here, Dirt Daubers is a type of wasp that builds their nest out of mud. Have those and regular wasps too. Edit: Can't believe you didn't know what those are, etc. :P Also, you can keep them, we don't need them back.

[@AChrivia]

13:01 the yellow valve is supposed to operate the tractor brakes only. As long as the tractor breaks are all applied and released with the yellow valve, that part of the air system is correct. The brake pedal is supposed to operate both tractor and trailer brakes but obviously only when hauling a trailer. When not hauling a trailer, the brakes should only be applied to the tractor so in this case, that too would be right so long as the brakes also can be applied to a trailer.

[@joeblow2063]

The issue was more about the exhaust vent from the release valve. Not releasing properly was causing slow/insufficient travel on the rear cans.

[@blindtomsadventures2067]

Good job you got it done. One of your other videos I did tell you how to put on that transmission. But what do I know 25 years experience six years of being blind working on trucks and how to plumb all the airlines to the transmission
