Škoda 706 RTO
Expanding the fleet of the Czechoslovak vehicles in LFS with yet another legendary bus: the Škoda 706 RTO, manufactured between 1958 and 1972. It was nicknamed "the egg", "the pickle" or "the dumpling" due to its characteristic body shape.

There were several variants of this model, including an articulated version. But this particular mod will represent the 706 RTO KAR version, which was used for short distance intercity lines.

I've decided to submit this as WIP: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/110006-ERTAK

The drivetrain and chassis specs should be final unless an issue comes up during testing.

Most of the dashboard is unfinished and acts as a placeholder for now. There are still several holes in the 3D model which I want to fix, especially in the interior. The driver animation also might need improvements and there's no skin support yet.
