More info on Peterbilt Pickup Trucks

[Necktie]

Could you provide more background on your pursuit. Where are you located and how long have you been doing this? How many trucks built so far?

They are neat.

Hello,
Sorry it has taken so long for us to get back with you. My husband not only builds these marvelous trucks but he is a truck driver otr as well. He has been building these trucks for over 3 years and has built 5 so far. We are located in Lebanon, Missouri. since these pick up trucks are custome bilt, it can take anywhere from 3-6 months to get one done. If you would like more information just let us know.
Thanks,
Mike and Holly

Mike and Holly,

I am actually surprised if Mike drives he can even get a truck built in 3 to 6 months. By the way who does Mike drive for?

For years we have been a dedicated Freightliner fleet. Because Freightliner did away with the FLD and the Classic goes away next year we have shifted to the Peterbilt 386. While I like the Peterbilts I am very sentimental to my hertiage with Freightliner from 1964 to 2007. I loved the FLD as my all time favorite Freightliner. But I also don't have the critism for the old cabovers like some have. Freightliner lead the way for advanced cab interiors in the mid 1960's.

I see that Mike at one time built pickups from different truck brand cabs. Does he still do this or do you only specialize in Peterbilts at this time?

Basically while I wish to have a truck-pickup I am actually undecisive if I want it to be a Freightliner representing our hertiage or a Peterbilt for the present and future. We have many Freightliner cabs and body parts that could be used for this project which could help conserve the cost.

We probably need to have a phone conversation. Also my son lives in Springfield, MO and we live in Quincy. Occassionaly we make a trip right thru Lebanaon on the way to Springfield. Gully Transportation also has a few trucks based in Springfield, MO on relay operations.

Trucks are both a lot of fun and a pain in the ass at the same time.

Truck safe and may GOD be your co-driver.
