Diamond, Missouri-based Gerald Mock showed this impressive 1987 Peterbilt 359 at the 2023 Guilty By Association Truck Show in Joplin, Missouri.
While not a driver himself, Mock has been around trucking his whole life, with his father and grandfather both in the business.
Mock's brother-in-law, Brantley Johnson, owns the truck and bought it after it had been sitting for 15-20 years, Mock said. The truck is unique in that it's technically a "Classic 359," a numbered series of trucks sold in 1987 to commemorate the final year of the 359 model.
This truck, however, isn't numbered and is what Mock said is considered an "extension truck." Even though it's not numbered, "it still made the Classic cut."
The Classic 359 badge under the door signifies the rig is part of the limited run of '87 359s in the Classic series.
