    Could a Peterbilt 579,389 sleeper be attached to a Freightliner Coronado day cab?

    I'd say all is possible with the almighty dollars and a little creativity. The body lines may look odd.

    I dunno.. A little bondo here and there and some elbow grease. That'd be a one of a kind. :-D

    Where the hell is y'all's sense of adventure. Throw some brackets on that the welds look like a grape vine pulled thru a hens ###. A home made rubber boot outta expandafoam and flex seal, leave it a different color and call it the Johnny Cash

    anything is possible. I used to use inner tubes to replace boot between cab and bunk. Paint will make the unit blend in. Warsaw-20131026-00662.jpg

    Don't be silly, a pre-cab sleeper is just a waste of money. Save your cash and build one from plywood.

    You can do it but you need to add a flange and boot to the cab, better just to deeply the truck and buy one with a sleeper.
