LONG N’ LOW AND ON THE GO
THE LATEST PROJECT FROM CLINT MOORE

Clint Moore’s latest creation is a new Peterbilt put together for Bobby Harrison of Wake Forest, North Carolina. According to Clint, Bobby is one of the coolest guys you could ever meet. In 2004, Bobby had quadruple bypass surgery and while he was recovering he made the decision to sell his beloved 2001 Pete 70” high-roof with a C16 Cat named “Kil Roy’s Toy.” The next morning he woke up and said, “Lord, what have I done!” That’s when he called Clint and told him that he wanted to have the “perfect” truck built. Bobby’s ride is a brand new Peterbilt with a 63” flat-top sleeper, a 312” wheelbase, a 625 horsepower C-15 Acert Cat, 18-speed transmission, 3.36 rears on a low air suspension with a car hauler front axle. The paint was done at the factory and, after he got the truck, Clint added clear-lens LED lights everywhere, a 22” Valley Chrome bumper, smooth stainless deck plating, stainless cab and sleeper panels, and a total of six polished battery boxes. Clint and his team also installed 7” straight stacks and a set of WTI fiberglass fenders. Inside, the truck has a full gauge package, a Mahogany wood floor, low-rider seats, an Alpine navigation system and an XM radio. At 67 years young, Bobby is married to his Sweetie Mae. The happy couple has four children, six grandchildren and one great grandchild. Bobby runs from North Carolina to Los Angeles every other week and has been trucking for 44 years. He says that he’ll retire when he can drive from NC to CA without driving through any construction zones. I guess that won’t be anytime soon! If you see Bobby out there running, be sure to give him a shout.
