Project 1988 Peterbilt 379 is Jarrett Landry's 'oversize dually'

Headquartered in Louisiana, oil/gas pipeline pro Jarrett Landy isn't a working owner-operator, but he's a proud truck owner nonetheless -- so much so that when Peterbilt got wind of the completion of this custom restoration, reps with the truck maker invited Landry to participate in the annual Pride & Class parade and truck show in October 2023. The 1988 Peterbilt 379 was built originally as a daycab for a North Carolina owner, he said. Functionally, it was veritable "flower pot" when he found it and toted it home on a lowboy with his owner-operator father, Wayde Landry, to start what would be a three-year odyssey to complete the rig. Parts from nearly a dozen other trucks -- including the very chassis on which the entire rig sits -- went into the build of what's now a 240-inch-wheelbase, single-drive-axle unit. It's powered by a Landry-rebuilt B model Caterpillar, with factory Acert turbos and a Full Tilt manifold, among other mods in the engine bay he details in the video. A 13 speed transmission and 3.36 rears complete the drivetrain. Landry added a 48-inch stand-up sleeper to make space for two rear seats, anticipating runs to livestock-show events as his kids get older. It's not uncommon when he's out at shows for passersby to comment that he "left the axle at home" when they see the single-drive-axle treatment. Landry's always quick with a response: "It's an oversize dually," he says, "that's all it is." Landry's rig was previously featured in this coverage of Peterbilt's 2023 Pride & Class parade: https://www.overdriveonline.com/life/...
