Awesome!

I'll be watching. Please complete this, lol.

So many of these projects get started on here never to be finished. It's very disappointing.

Man that thing is so big you'll need the Chrome Shop Mafia to trick it out. What kind of glue do you use on the styrene?

Where did you get the container box behind the sleeper? It looks like the real deal that Haz-Mat haulers use.
