Cool 1959 GMC Cannonball cab ride

Hi;Just joined the site and wanted to share a video of my truck with a detroit 6-71 and jake brake. Hope I am not repeating something you have already seen. I recently retired and now have the spare time to enjoy these forums. I really liked the thread showing pictures of the semi trucks. My name is Tom and I did a lot of work on the truck myself. Being out in the country you have to be a shade tree mechanic to keep the old girl running. Thanks for looking. I am also a member of the ATHS .

Real nice truck. I believe we have seen some videos of it before posted by a member or two. It's great to see it again. Wish I wasn't 2800 Miles away, lol.
