Chocolate Chrome
We installed new custom fenders and painted them mocha frost pearl to accent the brown color of the truck. Then we added monster 8" Dynaflex stacks on it to give it the "bad Larry" look. We put a custom drop visor, custom LVRD grill, Texas square bumper, SS hood extensions, SS cowl panels, SS breather/cab/sleeper lights, and added extra boxes behind the fuel tanks. On the inside we chromed out the gauges, dash vents, and toggle switches, as well as putting wood door armrest/handles on it. With the American Class interior already in it this truck is everything a true owner/operator could want.
It's got a 475 CAT with a 13 spd behind it and it not only sounds good with the 8" pipes, but it can haul some serious you-know-what.
We're happy we've turned out another one-off hood for someone to really be proud of. Check out www.interstate-trucks.com to get more info on this truck and some of our others.

2007 Peterbilt 379exhd
We added a custom blind mount drop visor, SS custom fenders, Texas square bumper, custom grill, SS hood extensions, SS cowl panels, and monster 8" stacks! We have since also added SS window drops at the top of the cab and sleeper windows. This truck looks tough going down the road.
We also chromed out all the gauges and vents as well as putting custom air brake handles on it. The Cummins underneath the hood combined with the 8" pipes gives this Pete one mean sounding growl. The best part of this deal is that you can own this truck for yourself. To get more information about this particular truck click on the following link: 2007 Pete 379exhd Custom.

Custom Long & Tall
Next step was to send it to the body shop. In true Interstate Trucks fashion, what started off with just wanting to paint the frame, we kept coming up with other ways to make the truck look cooler. So we did a fresh coat of paint on the rear full fenders, as well as changing the SS grill and grill surround to match the Flame Red Effect color on the front and rear fenders. We just knew this would set the truck off. When she rolled out of the body shop with a fresh coat of paint on the frame, fenders, and grill; she looked like a brand new truck. Once the new paint was down, we needed to send the truck back to the detail shop to have her all spiffed up and looking good. To say we threatened lives if any of the fresh paint got messed up, was an understatement. Our shop complied to our demands and they did an excellent job getting her all shined up. It really was an unfortunate time to be doing it though, seeing as it happens to be pollen season!!
She's already sold and gone, but we hope to have another one very soon. Until the next time, keep on truckin'!
