I'm thinking that burb I drug home for parts had plywood in the back for a floor. I don't remember any metal strips running the length of the floor what floor was left.

It seems most, if not all, 52 & newer Panels & Burbs had plywood. Some, but not all 47-51's had wood with strips.

Ok, I learned something this morning. The day is a success. The one I drug home for the window sections must have been a later one then. There wasn't a whole lot of it there when I pulled it out of the woods.

GRUNDY INSURANCE is awesome!
I took the truck to a local, reputable shop. They advised repairing the brake cylinders (cooked), exhaust, wood floor, & gutting and replacing the interior. The adjuster agreed and 'the check is in the mail'.
Very impressed with their customer service!!

Fixed the brakes yesterday, goes in for the exhaust repairs next week.:metal:

I think the adjuster was truly as happy as I was that the fire didn't break out as I was moving. I was pulling my trailer with my 61 Impala on it that is recently appraised and insured for a lot!
