Jeff Barrett's 1987 Peterbilt 359 EXHD

Jeff Barrett's 1987 Peterbilt 359

Jeff Barrett has been slowly upgrading this 1987 Peterbilt 359 EXHD over the last 20 years. It started out as a standard hood with a 425-hp mechanical Cat and now features the extended hood and a 550-hp Cat 3406E. Barrett purchased a 1999 Kenworth in February 2020 and started a complete restoration of this 359, replacing almost all of the body and sleeper skins, then doing a complete paint job and interior redo. Barrett used the truck to pull a lowboy for most of its life, but now he hauls lumber, roof trusses and related building materials.
