[FC] 1962 dual rampside

[Dusty Steinberg]

I spoke to the owner a number of years ago, and he said that it was the only one bult.  I asked what kept it from buckling in the middle, and was told that it had steel beams under the body.  I am not certain that it is a factory built vehicle, but I have no reason to doubt his honesty.  It very well may have been done by a previous owner more years ago, than anyone could remember.  I would check it over carefully for deviations from what would have been practiced by Chevrolet back then.  If it truly has a I beam in the floor area, I doubt that Chevrolet would have done a unit like this.  Also, check the ramp quarter panel area for signs of modifications.  I could be way off base on this, so take my thoughts for what they are... One persons opinion, based on a telephone conversation from long ago.  Possibly Dave Newell can shed some light on the subject.
