Bill Signs

[Chris guthro]

Hey Guys! im just wondering if the bill signs peterbilt comes with the 60'' sleeper ? if so, are both sets of frame rails relatively the same that you get in the kit? because i have the idea of building the bill signs pete as a heavy hauler with the bunk. So if probabley have to use the extra set of frame rails to extend it. Is it molded in white?

Just wondering because mine is on its way

Yes, Bill Signs comes with the 60" sleeper. Both sets of rails are the same length, difference is in the rear tandem span and some molded on details. Besides the sleeper the kit also includes drive shafts for both versions, the exhaust tubing, the gas and air tanks, the air filters, the frame steps, the sleeper roof deflector, the headache rack and some other details.

There might be some variations in the molds color for different markets. Here in central Europe I got the chassis parts in darkish grey, the engine and the sleeper parts in light grey. Not too sure about the cab and hood, I think they were white.

Cheers, Jarda

are the normal 359 frame rails longer than the bill signs ones? thanks for the info, if anyone built this kit in a different way please post pictures! i want some inspiration

Chris the cab is a very light grey. The frame rails are longer than the Bill Signs, they are the rails used for the normal 359 kit. You have the option to build a complete Bill Signs frame or the 359 frame.

Here is one I built, I used the Bill Signs frame.

That trucks is sweet looking John!! I am wondering how hard it is to mount the suspension from bill signs style to the regular 359 frame to get the extra length

Chris, why don't you just stretch the heavy haul frame using the regular 359 frame? that's what I've always done...

Hi Chris:

Its not that hard to section the frame and add the rear part to the other frame rails to get the length you need since both frame rails are the same size.

Hi Chris, here is my version

I built mine as a heavy haul, I had trouble with the hood and doors but everything else went together ok.

Hay guys you both did a very nice job on the trucks, I like the flames on the first truck nice. I hope mine comes out nice like your builds.

Yea i think ill section the heavy haul frame. I think the 60 inch sleeper would make this truck! these builds are amazing guys!
