A couple years ago my '55 2nd series Napco Suburban burned while in storage. It was a bit rusty to start with and the fire didn't do it any favors other than ridding it of any bondo or filler. Long story short I've been thinking about what to do with it. Finding a replacement body is essentially impossible but luckily I have a lot of the parts to reconstruct it, fenders, doors, heaters, dash, etc. Surprisingly I found that the Surburban floor panels are reproduced as are the other panels I'll need firewall, cowl, etc. The heat from the fire caused all the cross frame sills in the back half to sag and the body rides low and lists to one side. The frame looks fine.
Are the cross sills the same as those used under truck beds, they seem similar? If so it should be a pretty straight forward job to get it back to the right ride height. If they're unique does any body have a lead on replacements.
Thanks,
Andy T.
