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!!

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

It sure came out nice john !!!!! You even make it look easy . How did it do at the show ???? Shane

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Wow,wow ,wow:eek:
Post more as you go please.I am working on a peterbilt with unibilt sleeper
as well,but I think it will go on the backburner after seeing yours!

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Hey John is the top from PMD?

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Thanks guy's...Yeah Troy thats pmd's top..I cut and moded the king hauler sleeper to fit it...tough to get it to stick to the resin...I even drilled and counter sunk screws and just filled over them:eek:..Dont put on back buner..Build it boy:p...

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

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!

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Ric is working on a unibilt sleeper top for tamiya sleepers.......thats wye I was
wondering!:cool:

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Yeah..I saw him yesterday at the eastcoast meet and he said the mold was done...so just have to see how long before we can get them:D:D

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Nice job Jon, sorry I hada split yesterday, I wanted to stay but my brothers wife wasn't feeling good. Bummer. I got all my stuff from Ric, n the drive shaft to finish mine. Now I gotta fine one for my bro, he wants to get into them now, LOL

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

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.:eek: 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

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

Looks good John! I'm diggin' the paint scheme.

Re: King Hauler Overhaul..
 

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.
