Re: 69 Chevy 4 Door EX Rail Road Truck Located
I'm still hoping that someday he will come down and play in my ball park. You should see the actual rust on the cab. The photos look bad but it is pretty much worse. I'm talking take the cab off the chassis and do what Heart Rod did and hope there is enough in some areas to patch or quickly learn how to put a new roof, or floor on. Remember many of these parts are not avaliable so get the fab work going.... ( just me ranting about it a bit.)
I offerred 1500 but he said not just no but HELL NO!

Re: 69 Chevy 4 Door EX Rail Road Truck Located
Wow, I have never seen these before but it's cool to see them. Kinda ugly but also kinda cool. Funny how they were so utilitarian and practical that they just used the same doors for the rear and did not bother making new rear doors that looked correct. Guess it would be lots more expensive to make new unique rear doors, and glass, etc. Learn something new everyday.

Re: 69 Chevy 4 Door EX Rail Road Truck Located
I grew up in a North Missouri town called Moberly, MO, which was a Wabash & later Norfolk & Western railroad terminal of switching yards & roundhouse / locomotive & wrecked-cars repair shop / train embarkation point, and I remember seeing several of these huge rigs running around that area for years, hauling trainmen & repair crews.
The guy's story about "only 52 of these built" gets my BS alarm to ringing. I personally think they (Scott-Bilt) probably built all of them they could sell, myself. I worked the summer I graduated high school on a track repair crew for N&W & have ridden in some of these rigs. Uncomfortable. No AC. Huge blind spots at the door triangle. Like most anything from the '60's, they weren't all that "rare" at the time, but now ........... Hen's teeth. I'd guess most of them just got "used hard, used up & scrapped out."

Re: 69 Chevy 4 Door EX Rail Road Truck Located
I have been thinking lately, and I really would like to find one of these once my blazer is on the road, or I might even trade my blazer for one.
