Re: History, Teardown, and Rebuild 63 1-ton panel
Found some images on my railroad website of my GMC. I used to drive alongside the tracks and on the abandoned roadbed. The railroad, the Western Maryland Railway ran from Baltimore, Md. to Connellsville, Pa. It was mostly abandoned in 1975 by the Chessie System. Anyway like I said I used to drive the roadbed, here are some shots back around 2000, 2003 of the truck a some locations. If your wanting to know more about the railroad check out my website,

. I also drove my 63 Impala on a lot of the abandoned route also if the clearence wasn't too bad on the ballast.
As for the truck today, I ordered some 1962 fleetside cross sills from a Tuckers Auto Parts in Nevada. Was gonna go the Classic Industries route but shipping on 3 cross sills was 184 bucks, only 54 bucks other place. I'll see what I get for what I paid.
