freightshaker Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Hey guys here's the finished product for the modified kenworth snap and fruehauf trailer I was building. Spread axle air ride working vent doors on the trailer, cut the aerodyne off and put a 36" bunk on. No stretch just simple. Made bumper guides and air cleaner light bars. Put a quilted bunk protector on and custom visor. Thanks for looking. This is one of my favorites that I have built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petetrucker07 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Very nice job. Looks great, has an early outlaw look to it. That color looks awesome outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim B Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Very nice conversion to the 36" sleeper. I really like it. Great color, too. Not a big fan of those stacks (but then again it's not my model), and it looks like your engine needs a serious tune-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freightshaker Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Hey guys thanks for the compliments, as I stated this is possibly my favorite that I have done just because of the bunk conversion and the paint. Never been a fan of aerodyne sleepers. Mark, the aerodyne removal wasn't too terrible but fixing the cab can be a challenge. Due to the back curver and the Angled cutout from the aerodyne. Best advice for that back of the cab is to cut your piece to fill the hole from the back of the bunk. Experiment is the best way. And Jim, that engine runs just fine she's just loaded heavy and Rollin' coal! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freightshaker Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Is that steel wool for the smoke? No it's actually cotton balls stretched and misted with gray and black paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
