The cabover enthusiasts, out there, will be well served, with all the details on that work of art, that Gislain Fleury put together, himself.
The one that we call "Lucky", took possession of his Kenworth in October 2011 and felt the need to go work with it, for two months, to see if the truck was to his expections . After passing the test with succes, the K-100 deserved a six months extreme makover at the Lucky's laboratory .
It's after he changed the frame rails, moved the steer axle towards the front , restored all the brakets , completely redone the cab and many other major works, that the fun part began : paint, chrome, light , etc ...
We notice the " Lucky style ", at the first sight ... The style of the 80's with the large paint stripes, the numerous lights, but, also a touch of the actual style, with the 256'' wheelbase , a Texas Bumper, a large stainless steel sunvisor, the rear fiberglass full fenders and much more .
The '' Lucky-Machine ''
If you are impressed by the result ...... You're right !...... But wait until you see the inside ....... You will be speachless ......... Just like a limousine luxeriously padded in white, yes, in white !!! ... And, it's on a white heated ceramic floor, that Lucky rest his feet to drive his large-car . That's beside the steering wheel, all painted in white . We can think that he drives his fancy truck with white gloves . Although he takes pride in his ride, Lucky still have to work the truck evrey day, not always in the best conditions, often in the mud , in the fields, or worse, in some junkyards .... Considering all that, I think, our friend deserves even more credit .
