Troy, if that's a messed up paint job, on that sleeper, I have to ask what your 'good' paint jobs look like. I can't see any flaws! Now I'm not sure which I like better. The truck as a day cab, or the truck with it's slip over sleeper.

Troy you have taken a perfect truck and made it better, if that's possible! I love this thing, the old school look, the stance, it all comes together beautifully!!! The detail is just stunning! Love it! However there is one problem with this truck.....I don't own it!

Thank you very much for the compliments guys.....it means alot coming from
all the talented people on this board.

The sleeper slides right over the rack,and fits snug....thats all thats holding
it in place.

The tape that I used to mask it was too cold,and would not hug the body very well.The paint seeped under the tape a little bit.....it's worse on the
other side.

This was an experiment any way...so I will build a better one later with the correct roof profile,etc.
