Smokey & The Bandit Tribute Truck Ep.65 These Projects Are Never Done

Описание: #ProjectSnowman #twinsticks #twinstickgarage

On this episode I continue with the ongoing restoration of this 1979 Kenworth W900A truck to turn it into a tribute movie truck and trailer to the one used in the 1977 classic movie Smokey and the Bandit with Burt Reynolds, Jerry Reed and Jackie Gleason. If you haven’t seen it yet, what are you waiting for??? “Son, from what I’ve heard the biggest thing about the Bandit is his ego. I figure that, plus a lot of my dollars and he’ll try anything legal or not”

So I need to get Snowman running again as I need the shop space to work on the tandems and the ThermoKing reefer shell in preparation for the trailer restoration, so first up is to mount the intake snorkels and while doing that I discovered a coolant leak that snowballed into a complete refurb of the coolant system that’s still ongoing. Then I needed to tackle leaky pinion seal on the rear diff. Like I mention in the video, these projects are never really done but that’s what makes them so much fun and don’t worry, I’ll be back sooner than you think…

Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for all the comments, suggestions, and support!
Keep in mind, I know a little about a lot but not an expert in anything … just doing the best I can, learning as I go ... I do all my own stunts

Enjoy watching the progress of this Kenworth W900A project, the ongoing Peterbilt 359 restoration and the upcoming #IronDuke Kenworth K100 cabover I’m planning to build up like the one used in the 70’s trucking movie High Ballin’ with Jerry Reed and Peter Fonda.
