This extremely sharp Freightliner FLD120 and Utility 53' refrigerated
trailer are the lastest projects from Jim Groeneweg. The Freightliner
is one of Jim's own Jacobs Models resin cab kits mounted on a Herpa frame
and painted with automotive lacquer paints in the Moznik scheme. The
A-Line 53' Utility is only changed at the suspension and a Herpa Thermo-King
unit
was
added.
The suspension is a Lonestar Models air-ride suspension modified to a 72" spread tridem fitted
to the A-Line
slider rails (which were lengthened). The wheels are from Herpa and
decals are A-Line conspicuity stripes, detail decals from Pen Bay,
and Moznik decals from Ken
Goudy.
