10-4 Magazine January 2025

JANUARY 2025 COVER FEATURE: www.tenfourmagazine.com Kent Swapp (63) of Gilbert, AZ owns and operates this 1957 Kenworth 925. Powered by a 475-hp Cummins with twin turbos hooked to a 13-speed, this is just one of the four trucks Kent owns. Kent’s main business is a truck repair shop in Mesa, AZ called Kent’s Diesel Works, which he opened in 1997. As a side deal, Kent does some trucking, along with his son, pulling flatbeds and hauling concrete road barriers. This cool old KW is not his everyday runner, but Kent still uses it as a spare truck when needed and to haul in broke down trucks for the shop.
