Kenworth K100 Cabover Detroit Diesel SEMI TRUCK Restoration 

Damn Dane ,I love it everytime you say there are no flip-flops in this work truck

I'm digging the two tone green scheme.

Grasshopper is coming along nicely!!

Dane I'm getting excited about grasshopper it's getting closer to being done and I can't wait

Wow Dane you're a great painter grasshopper looks just as he should now....

Grasshopper is looking awesome 😊😊😊😊

Grasshopper is going to be great! It's coming along very nicely.

Love grasshopper, I want it😂

Gorgeous Mack Wrecker!!

Great video Dane! Grasshopper is going to be one fine k-whopper!

You guys are putting in some serious work into this battered old snake pit, but wow! is it paying off.

Cool vintage rigs!!

As usual another great video. It's a good thing grasshopper didn't get a rested for showing his dairy air. Looking absolutely excellent till next time

Sweet goodies!!

Hello Dane, I appreciate all the Truckers Lounge shows. You do put together great content videos. I wish California was closer to Ohio because I would attend your second annual GMC Jamboree. I will have to try to make it one year. Great luck w/ your Grasshopper revival.

Grasshopper is coming along nicely Dane

Great, as usual!

Kenworth is coming into the home stretch Dane , still aways to go but thank you for yours and close friends persistence in staying with it ,, ALWAYS a Pleasure to see and appearance from COLUMBO, kind of a trip down memory lane for me as my Mom loved that shows and of course my Dad because of the trucks , Keep On Trucking Poundin the Ground Safe and Sound LOL. , as always Dane Safe Travels to you and your family and friends 👍👍👍👍

Yo dan A another RU-vidr that I follow and watch his video FSC trucking He also working on his 1980 ford CL90000 he cut off the rear end also in the work on his Peterbilt 352 Cabover also cut off the rear end of 352 Pete and combined the 1980 ford and Pete 352 rear end as one for the ford CL9000 new rear end and for the Peterbilt 352 Cabover when FSC trucking is done fixing up the ford the Peterbilt 352 will get a brand rear end when the ford is done being fix

Grasshopper is going to be niiice and your keeping it old school cool to boot. My last KW K100 was an 1982 in 2001 with a 400 big cam Cummins matched up with a 13 speed (which wasn't the original trans)and she was a double bunk painted gold. Can't wait to see it all done..

Now all you need to do is add some freightliner parts and you'll have a Peter Worth Shaken!

Grasshopper looking good Mr Scotts he will be ready to roll once he all put together 🙂👍

You've got me well and truly hooked Dane! I subscribe to a lot of channels, but yours is what I look forward to popping up the most. I so look forward to each episode, with the progress on Grasshopper. The paint scheme is already looking killer! Keep up the great work Dane. Your channel is only getting bigger and better! Cheers, Mike

Good

Dane the k100 looks great 👍

G day Dane, Ray from Australia 🇦🇺 here , if you notice my profile on RU-vid you will see the Labatt’s Streamliner. I was lucky enough to track it down in Canada 🇨🇦 and eventually travelled to Canada to see it and meet Joe Scott the guy responsible for restoring the White Labatt’s Streamliner back in 2001. The KW is coming on a treat and the Detroit sounds great, the only thing that I would have done differently is I would have left it with the broomsticks ( Torsion Bar) in it , but it’s your truck so you can do whatever you like. Look forward to seeing and hearing 🦗in future episodes. Cheers Ray from down under.

Hi Dane! I sure enjoy watching you work your magic. I thought grasshopper was beyond hope. It is amazing watching the transformation.

Love seeing the progress on that ol K-Whopper ! Keep up tge good work & Love your Chad Keegan shirt too !

Awesome Thanks for the update on Grass Hopper. That new piece is gonna be adventure in. Putting and assembling and mating to grass hopper. Looking forward to the step by step progress. Keep up the great work.

With new set of drives you will have grasshopper up and running in no time. The paint job looks real good.

Tuesday's for once cool cool. But I get some nice aluminum rims to go to go with the the other nice one. Did you have one front? Get some nice LA d lights in the back of it. Get some mirror brakes on the back of it. Put some mere breaks on there safety first brother safety first

Paint looks good. Makers hung on to the carriage door handles a really long time. I guess the new rear will fly some serious sparks on the install.

Great episode Dane 👏Love the green color scheme! Can’t wait to see the finished results 👍Look forward each week to your updates 😎David

Love those colors, awesome job Dane. I have to say in my entire career I have never heard or seen a Peterworth.😆👍👍

Another stellar production Dane.

Coming along nicely. My true love is the towing industry so that R model wrecker was awesome to see.

That is the way to do it, using a cutoff.

Hard work gets it done! Lookin good.

Hello Dane, Another informative video, I think you will appreciate that air ride suspension. My77 had spring ride. AKA rough rider. Looking good. Glad you got the air horns working. Have a wonderful week sir.😊

Grasshopper is looking awesome! The same darker green could probably be used on Sarge, too. Just a thought.

I think the colors look great they remind me of the Kenworth from the TV show moving on

Nice 👍

The Labatt’s Steamliner is a cross the lake from you in labatt’s museum in London Ontario . .

Nice 😊

BTW Greetings from sunny Florida!!.. If you can ever get to The Florida Flywheelers show in the Avon Park Fla area I highly recommend it!!

I always liked the Internationals, I drove a '72 Transtar for North American. Old school trucks and cars are the only good ones. Drivers today don't know what spring ride, manual steering was like bouncing down the highway, and if you ever rode in the jump seat....wow. Grasshopper is looking good. I too like the dayton style wheel, but never changing the tires.

That Green on your KW reminds me of tge Green that was on the old Saunders truck rental trucks, they had alot of Transtar & KW cabovers when i was a kid. Not sure if tgey were local in Alabama or Nation wide.

That would be awesome if you could get your hands on a trailer similar to the one behind the emeryville to pull behind grasshopper.

There is local company here in South East ky that has a W900A with Peterbilt air trac under it. Does a great job it's more stable than the original suspension. You will be happy with grasshopper.

👍👍👍

I remember it touring to truck and car shows in the 80’s along with one of its predecessor a 1919 White truck that hauled kegs of beer . To the best of my Knowledge Labatt’s still has them. Both in London. Will see if I can’t find out about them .

O-H-I-O Porters🇺🇸 I’ve tried watching this episode several times, but got interrupted until today. I’m learning so much about the K100s…I thought the roof top would be all aluminum or fiberglass, not both. Here’s my biggest THRILL: Seeing this old truck, being pretty much ready for the junkyard, coming back to life. Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder & we sure have the heart to bring them back to life! So this truck was originally Black & White? That sure pops out! Interesting. How many owners has it had? The guy you bought it from painted it the green combo? I’m actually liking the green more than before. I know it was popular on some of the older rigs, but it usually doesn’t do much for me. New Rears: now that’s what I’m talking about! I’m very interested in this process, so I hope you cover it very well. Will you do most of the work at your shop? I’m planning on visiting JRs soon to get some parts for my REO project. Thanks for sharing our REO info. Love those old Emeryvilles! I knew several people who owned or drove them back in the day. Blessings my friend! 🥰😎✌️

Hellow buddy

I see you find it easier to do in sections.. which can be done as they are all.riveted panels...keeps down in overspray... What clear are you using.? Nice job ...and stay safe

Hello driver! I love the paint scheme with green, however just my opinion I think I would go with aluminum rims around truck....by the way how is Columbo doing? ...love all your videos and look forward to watching every video you make! Hats off to you from Kinston NC for your hard work and persistence...10-4 im gone!

It's to bad that Ford GMC,Dodge,Brockway.Diamond,Reo,Marmon are gone,it would have been something to see those trucks now.

Paint the roof white be cooler in summer

You want air ride you want air ride? You don't want nothing. There's like that. It's hard on the body and everything I like you. How like your butt? You're right air ride because if you're changing the whole truck. I just seen somebody check out Texas metal, what they did to a 1973 Peter bill. Didn't up nice for the counterpooler engine in the air. Everything changed the air ride and riding. Everything got the put a new cut off. All there looks great looks great people. They take those those. What's you called? It's off and I go when I go newer. More boy, you're you're good. You're a good guy, Dean, huh?

Looks good!!! Do you ever think about doing an old 79 international trans star 2

Ah. I might've wondered about that aqua color maybe being the exposed panel material - but then I thought "naw, that's gotta be paint!"🤣 That new rear 'clip' is nice, except for that rear crossmember, which you can probably straighten or replace. I'd try bending that passenger side chrome splash-guard back into position too - although those don't quite belong there as much, on an older truck like that. General cab is going to Wayne? Ol2Stroker Wayne?

Hello Mr. Scott, this is Dana again when I first started watching the truckers lounge I was intrigued by the way you were making your garage looked like a truckstop eating area that I remember from when I was younger still enjoy that I thought that Peterbilt of yours was one of the most gorgeous things I’ve ever seen I could not believe it when you got rid of it But I can see now that you’re far happier dink around with these older trucks getting more into the Detroit, powered machines and more of the freight type trucks like your cracker box with the ABF weathered look to it that probably more drivers can relate to instead of a swanky owner operator, Peterbiltkeep up the good work I’m not going anywhere

I wish You knew someone with a 950 size cannonball to show

By now I'm sure you got the whole top of the cab scraped off but would paint stripper have helped?

poor Grasshopper is the butt of your jokes :(

Was always a fan of KWs, especially when I was a kid way back in the 70s, I have question, does anyone know why KWs had a very long horn on the passinger side & a shorter horn on the driver side? I've always wondered why they made them like that, they had the best sounding horns I think👍✌️

What happened to big green 379

What happened to mint chip? I guess I missed it.

are you going to the Kenworth truck parade in Chillicothe
