I do think the white should be left alone, it’s a great truck the way it is, and it’s not as if it’ll be doing any long hauls with that day cab, the w900 with a wash and clean out, some tires that hold air and maybe some new air lines and a bag or 2 could make a nice bit of pocket change

I think the Kenworth up and going would be a great addition to the channel. I would leave the white alone though because that is a great running and driving truck as it is, especially being all original. that Kenworth would be really sweet to have up and going though for sure. clean it up and get it running and some new wheels and tires she will be golden! love the channel bruce

Bruce when applying new grease to the 5th wheel you really should raise the trailer and back under it then lower it on to the greased 5th wheel. Otherwise it scrapes all the grease onto the tip on the trailer. 2:35 all that grease gone to waste on the tip instead of on the rotating area under of the trailer. that being said i think you should keep white collar stock and upgrade the trans/AC/brakes. its a good work horse.

O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 There’s nothing like the sound of a nice kitty Cat engine! 🥰 I heard initially that it was an 84 KW. So what year is it actually? Having the right equipment really makes all the difference in the world! 🤩 One good thing to take on these Will It Start might be a portable air compressor!? I love that era of KWs. And he stated that the other KW was for sale as well! Hey, I know that you would like to add some power to White Collar, but before you go yankin that motor out, please check the truck overall to see if it’s still repairable. It might be too good to gut it out like that.🧐 Are the frame rails aluminum? It sounded & looked like it. 🧐 Show us some more of that sweet KW when you get the chance. 🥰😎✌️
