That thing is coming along nicely, to really complete the old school look Fred you need the side door in your reefer for the produce delivery. But you did a great job on the reefer unit. How did you make the metal grating on the unit?

Thanks !!! I might try that side door. Good idea. Still need to put a fuel tank on it. I used KH stack guards. Straightened them. Bent and trimmed as needed. They worked out perfect!!

Thanks Paul!! Now I have to figure out how to make the wing on top of the sleeper. I seen someone make one out of brass and had it chromed. I'm not good at brass work. So my choices are stainless, aluminum which are going to be areal challenge or cop out and use styrene and foil tape.

That's s fantastic idea using the stock king hauler stack covers as the grating on the reefer unit.
