Bob , I enjoyed the pics of your truck, I wish I wasn't retired and could afford it, Shiloh however is beautiful, I have a yellow lab-husky mix named Duke who could be a twin, We have had 14 wonderful years together so far. And yes Duke is a railfan. - -----Original Message----- From: Dlw1el2_@_aol.com [mailto:Dlw1el2@aol.com] Sent: Friday, September 05, 2008 2:19 PM To: erielack_@_lists.elhts.org Cc: anthraciterr_@_yahoogroups.com Subject: (erielack) 1949 Chevy Half Ton Lackawanna Pick Up Truck NOTE: This message had contained at least one image attachment.

The truck is about 99% stock, and of course has the custom painted Lackawanna Magnetic signs with black fenders. Thus this authentic mariner blue truck can be a RR truck or if desired just a plain truck with in seconds. I have learned over the years that for every 10 of these type tucks you see 9 are supped up hot rods or at least have a big 350 engine put in them. This truck is still 6 volts, and has an original Chevy 216 engine. Last year 2 K worth of new radials and rebuilt lever action shocks were added to the truck. I also have the old split rim truck tires for any one who wants to be REALLY authentic. When purchased I hand undercoated the entire truck with Por 15, which for any one that's into restoration or rust proofing knows, it doesn't get any better than that. I have all the original owners manuals, dozens of Chevy truck catalogs, and most all receipts over the past 10-14 years etc, etc. The truck has always been a big hit at cruise nights, and shows and can be a lot fun for those with time to take care of it. I have at least one serious individual coming back out to NJ to see it again in a week. He is not a railfan! Of course my first choice would be to sell it to a responsible Lackawanna Railfan, that intends to keep it stock, but either way the truck will eventually get sold. I am stating this here on the EL list with some CC to others, but of course would ask all those SERIOUSLY interested to contact me off list. Asking price is a firm $12,600.00 at this time. Attached are some photos, that I hope go through. Shiloh is not for sale at any price. Bob Bahrs **************Psssst...Have you heard the news?
