Doug Gerhardt
For years we were teased with pics of a very cool 359 on the Pickett Custom Trucks website. When this cool 359 showed back up on Picketts website getting a makeover, we knew we had to learn more. Turns out the 1980 Peterbilt 359 and 1997 Mississippi propane trailer belongs to Doug Gerhardt of Snohomish, Washington. Doug’s 359 rolled off the Peterbilt production line in Newark, California on December 21st 1979 as a 220” wheelbase, aluminum frame, 400 Cummins with a 12/5 13 speed transmission, short hood with a 36” crawl through sleeper.
