ok i wish all projects were this easy


ok i started with a knight hauler and used the over head sleeper,but to make the work i needed to widen it by 3/4 inch.all straight cuts.but instead of 1 cut down the middle i did 2 cuts down the side to give it a nicer look

I think it looks much sleeker without the lightbar, the lights look over scale. sorry

I would say you have found an easy way to give the Globe Liner a modern look! Excellent idea!

Why not try placing the lights from your ligthbar on the cattle rack and skip the lightbar? As it is now, the lightbar counteracts the sleek look that the raised roof gives.

Def looks better without the lightbar, cant help thinking it needs another colour to really make it stand out, reckon white somewhere would look good.maybe a stripe below the windscreen and onto the sides. otherwise excellent job
