I would love to own this bad boy, good for you ....congrats on that new beauty in your stable.
Thanks!! Yea the pics dont do it justice. The reefer sounds the way to go. Stainless sides sounds sweet!

Wow Fred..... I dunno? What needs improving? I think you better post all your plans and make sure you have the " Forum .Family " seal of approval first eh? . Lol

Very nice addition to the fleet man!

I would love to see it parked next to Susan's at Indy perhaps???

Reefer's are the way to go granted all you are doing is pulling a trailer you can't do anything with but they can be tricked out and made to look insane to the point where it doesn't matter as long as you get it to match your tractor and add the "BLING". Good luck with the unit can't wait to see it painted and tricked out if you are going to go that route.

Those reefers are just cool. I would like to find a used one versus buying a kit and not using half the parts. I gues I could revamp my box trailer to a spread axle and find a reefer unit [not likely] or make one.Im going to the metal shop to check on some stainless panels, and make a trip to the paint shop to match some paint.

Well today Travis hooked me up with a reefer trailer, Thanks again. Im going with the stainless side panels, probaly not doing a spread axle so I can run matching fenders on truck and trailer. Keeping trailer frame black so it matches the truck. Gonna paint box frame and reefer unit blue.

Where did you get the stainless panels on that trailer?
I'm working on a scale 53' box trailer and that ribbed stainless is just what i'm after.

Thanks Adam!! I think the matching fenders will look better then it being a spread axle.
