highway Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) This fall AMT will be rereleasing there 40FT Reffer Trailer, and I'll be buying 2. Are you sure, Nick? All that I've heard about was the 40FT Freuhauf Van, not the reefers. By the way, nice builds!! Edited May 11, 2010 by highway
Kostas Parchas Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Hello Ducefan69', You have done a nice rig!! Kostas.
Nick Winter Posted May 11, 2010 Author Posted May 11, 2010 Thanks guys, Highway, I emailed Round2 about it and was told that it was the reefer, maybe that misinformed me. If not a refrigerator box isn't to hard to build.

Nick Winter Posted May 14, 2010 Author Posted May 14, 2010 Whoa there turkey, just dropped in to see what's goin' on and this lot appears. Looks like an honest straight forward question was asked by another member, then you lot then take to him with a big stick, well, here's a bigger stick. Now this 'denice' the menace comes up with a real doozy," a flat top sleeper ", OK turkey, go prove that such an animal was ever made, piccy's please, or crawl back in your kennel. Now the maker of this model, should at least do his homework, before shoving it all over the web, asking for CRITISISM of his skills, or lack there-of. Please have a look at this site and show me where this "supposed" flat top sleeper appears. regards radish Wow buddy, calm down there, if your pissed with him don't take it out on me.
Nick Winter Posted May 14, 2010 Author Posted May 14, 2010 Well, where's this flat top sleeper ever shown in any pictures of the actual truck then, at least you could have added a similar type of top to it. Even if it meant making something from balsa wood, so at least it looked somewhere near what should be there. regards radish No one ever said it was perfect especially not me, get a grip dude.
Nick Winter Posted May 14, 2010 Author Posted May 14, 2010 That's true, but what about the rest of the (edit) tellin' you what a marvelous job you did, yeh right, they better come down to earth instead of livin' in fairy land. regards radish I actually onlt didn't add the shape because I wasn't sure of how to do it, Fiberglass would crack overtime, Bondo would shrink, and that was all I came up with. But Balsa might just work............................................................................
