Hiya alexbennett…was the unusual sleeper rounded off and not square…if so i had the cab off that truck put
on a atki i drove,i mentioned it some time ago. it was my dream machine in the mid70’s a Atki with a sleeper…
someone will help us out as there’s some photos of a Atki with square head lights with that type of sleeper…
it was orange and then sprayed green i woundered if it was the same sleepercab as you mentioned…
no one could remember this type of cab been used at Adam Jomes…
