I really like this project!! I like cabover daycabs though. Looks great so far!

I have it on DVD, but the quality is TERRIBLE! Sadly the DVD wasn't cheap either. The show is also on Amazon, but I'm not sure about the pilot.

Cool project!! I've been wondering something about these big sleeper cabovers. Do some have a crawl through to the big sleeper, or are they all exterior entrance only?

If I'm not mistaken, in the old 359 kit the compressor is belt driven off of the rear accessory drive. I don't think that I would change any of that. The simplest conversion would be to get the manifolds, pipes, turbo set up and probably blower out of the AMT Aerodyne cab KW. The reissued Papa Truck would be a good source. If you can't source those parts, you would have to scratch build them. Scratch building the manifolds may prove a little tricky. I've never personally converted one exactly this way, but it shouldn't be much trouble. I've made a homemade rear turbo set up on one, but you won't have room for that. Hope this helps, Brian

Very nice work!!

Very nice looking build!!

Thanks for posting those bed specs. I've been wanting to do one of those. Now I don't have to get out the measuring tape on my truck.

Thanks! The rails are 8.75".
