As a kid in the 60's one of my favorite things was to go with my Dad or Grandpa to the tobacco market. We were at the Gold Leaf Warehouse at Smithfield NC just after a sale and my Grandpa was talking to a fellow farmer he knew. The warehouse had several doors with ramps that you could drive the 4-5 feet down to street level, and also had several doors that were 4-5 feet above ground level where the trucks were driven alongside the building and loaded with the sheets of tobacco. My Grandpa finished talking to the gentleman, who turned and got into his nearly new Ford pickup. The old guy then drove out of the warehouse but instead of driving down the ramp, he went out of one of the loading docks and crashed several feet down onto the street. The old guy was rattled to say the least, but unhurt. After he regained his composure, he drove the truck to the Ford dealer down the street and had it checked out. Only damage was some dents and scratches on the bottom of the front bumper. They don't build 'em like that anymore....

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
