Monroe, North Carolina-based hauler Greg Eudy, the owner of Greg Eudy Trucking, showed his custom 2000 Peterbilt 379, The Copper Kettle, at the Kenly 95 East Coast Jamboree earlier this month.
When he bought the truck in 2016, he says it was a blank canvas. It was a day cab with a short wheelbase, so he stretched it and added a flattop sleeper off of a Peterbilt 359. He also replaced the hood and added the visor, lights and stacks.
Under the hood is a 550-hp 6NZ Cat with an 18-speed and 3:70 rears. He uses the truck to haul sand and rock to concrete plants locally for Reynolds Trucking, based in Indian Trail, North Carolina.

The North Carolina State Board of Elections says investigators are still trying to get to the bottom of claims of voter assistance irregularities in Anson County. In November, a video surfaced showing a man accompanying a voter inside the early voting site and standing with him at the voting machine.
The man at the center of the allegations, John Montgomery, was campaigning for his wife, Dannie Montgomery, the Democratic candidate for register of deeds. A report on WBTV identified the man in the surveillance video as John Montgomery.
