clayton Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 This started off as a idea but now is on the bench. 378 with a 15' sleeper,may convert over too a 389 not sure yet. Since the photo done a bit of work.cut out ports for windows. The glass made from a CD case(works great)DO need care this stuff brake like glass.
Kostas Parchas Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Looking forward to see more of this sweet Peterbilt. 378 looks great. Can you post more pictures of the sleeeeeeeeeeeeeper? Kostas.
clayton Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Here are a few photo's of the inside (better on the way) and a few bits Over all idea. Fenders I made from sheet stock,going to be some time before I do that again.
Kostas Parchas Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 Hi Clayton, The sleeeeper looks fantastic and now I am curious to see more in progress pictures. I like the 378 concept with this big sleeper. Kostas.
clayton Posted July 3, 2011 Author Posted July 3, 2011 Thanks!! well what do you think now. Less helped with the washer,freezer(thanks) and every thing else made from flat sheet. Think I may have a few things off scale but not by much tho.
clayton Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 Will this work for a update? made the air damp/Wing??? from flat sheet it's a rude copy from the kit. The sat dome who knows it came from the baby's toy room. Clay
69A-CAR Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 That sleeper is BIG! Where is the pool table going? Mark
clayton Posted July 19, 2011 Author Posted July 19, 2011 Kinda getting too the were is the paint, That maybe some time due too the weather,that's fine got a few things too round up. Well what do you think so far. I'm kinda bad at adding or changing things,wing it as you go.
clayton Posted July 19, 2011 Author Posted July 19, 2011 Ford??not me,I was asking about one about 6 months ago but never started it.
clayton Posted August 2, 2011 Author Posted August 2, 2011 got the primer on and picked out the paint over weekend, so what do you all think? Does any body knows what kind of APU that is on the back of the sleeper? I have seen only one and built this one from memory.
cowboysevens Posted August 2, 2011 Posted August 2, 2011 that big'an is really comin together and lookin nice.
clayton Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Got the base on for the stripes,lime green. The chip card is what I may be looking for not sure yet.
bsoder Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 This brings to mind a project I've wanted to do, here's a pic. although yours has this beat!! sure wouldnt want to get that beast in a tight spot!!..lookin' forward to how this turns out
clayton Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Thanks! I've started that KW a number of times and get side tracked,one day.
69A-CAR Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 The paint is looking good, can't wait to see some shine on that one. Mark
clayton Posted September 1, 2011 Author Posted September 1, 2011 Can't Waite myself, but did some work this week to pass time, added tool boxes.Next come tools.
clayton Posted September 1, 2011 Author Posted September 1, 2011 Very nice truck. I cant wit to see how the interior turns out. Does anybody know if that k100 is still around? there still around but getting hard to find and cost.
Kostas Parchas Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Clayton, I like you sleeper very much and I can confirm that, a sleeper like this one is every European truck driver's dream. Don't forget to add an interior label saying home, sweet home! Kostas.
clayton Posted September 7, 2011 Author Posted September 7, 2011 Good idea, thanks. Have not had time to get it done, maybe in the next few weeks,
