As a side note, after going back and looking at the source in closer detail, Im not sure the interior is from the same truck.
The hood in the interiror shot is white and not in the correct shape to be from the KW.

That's an awful big fuel tank for a cab without a sleeper.

With stacks like that, Im guessing thats one thirsty truck. It probaby drinks down the fuel at a rate that requires those tanks!

PETEROD

This one just won the "BEST OF SHOW" 2004 truck show in Las Vegas. He's in Windsor now getting some work done at the Cat dealer on his 700hp Cat. He's made changes since these pics were taken. He's shaved the door handles, move the wipers above the windshield, added more chrome to the engine and color coated the engine to match the truck and trailer, added the big 3-spoke spinners. Appearently he is a Russian that came to the U.S.A. and mastered bodywork. He now hulls produce across North America and has combined both talents in one passion.
His name is Vlad Bilik Jr.
check out both pages of the website.
http://www.largecarmag.com/peterod.htm

He has a polished stainless steel floor and a California style HOTROD shifter, custom billit aluminum steering wheel, stainless steel catwalk and stainless steel underbelly to hide the driveshaft area.
And those stacks are 8" 'y'ed off the muffler. No straight pipes

You're right Rich. That's from a Frightshaker or Western Star I think. Look at the passenger door at the window line. Kenworths and Petes don't have that notch in the doors

AH,, I beg to differ!! Those are indeed kenworth doors! They come in the W-900 which this truck is,...and the t-600 and the 800series also! I should know, owned and drove a couple of them! BUT... As dieseldaze pointed out ,-it is not the same truck, Hood is white other truck is blue.

I dont think its from the same truck either, Look at the cowl induction in the middle of the hood. The blue KW dosent have a white CI on it.

I'm sure glad I don't have to fill up that yellow one at todays prices for fuel.

It keeps me busy to keep the two of mine full.
