BRBO Freightliner FLD 112

Cool build. I didn’t know that Jifflox chassis’s exists

Great subject matter.  FLD112 will look fantastic.  You didn't post in the beginning of your thread the reference truck you want to replicate.  What actually truck are you modeling?

The model is a two axle FLD 112 short hood with electronic intercooled M-11 power and 48 inch midroof sleeper which is jifflox equiped. It represents a western fleet tractor from a large fictious LTL common carrier fleet. It is not a replica of any particular fleet. Originnally I didn't know wtheher it would be condo cab, midroof or flatroof.

Just been fiddling around for weeks. I need parts from three vendors and everything is in slow mow because of Covid. Truck is going in a box and moving on to other unfinished projects.Got plenty to work on.

This is going to sound really stupid here,but what does BRBO stand for. I googled it and a I found was "beach rentals by owner". You guessed it....I'm big rig ignorant:).

 The whole covid thing has really messed up the hobby and the cottage industry  as a whole .

And for me living in the Philippines seriously complicates things .

   I hope you can get the parts you need . And will be looking for you to resume this build .

 

   Be Well
