Nice work on the unibilt sleeper, really adds to the peterbilt look. Not to mention yet another sharp paint job. You're a truck building machine!!

Well there's motivation for everyone to show their sleepers! I have been modding a king hauler sleeper to resemble a peterbilt flat top. It's only taken me the best part of a year!!! I'm sticking with it though and may soon have something to show!

Well the best thing I can say about the truck is the rims and the bumper look good but after that it goes down hill. The paint color looks like something of of those 1950 metal kitchen cabinets just hideous. The rear fenders look like a snow sled turned upside down. If I were you I would go back to the drawing board and try again.

John that truck to me looked f#$cking awsome. I could not believe you did all that work in just a week. I can't wait to see it when it is finished. It was a pleasure meeting you at the show. Tony

Wow looks really sharp, the fenders and headlights really give it the pete look. Nice detail with the painted hubs. The wheels give that extra touch of realism and complement the rest of the truck.
