    Don't worry if you don't have the original rails. Just get another set and rebuild it. It may affect value a little but it is still an original Sandman. Greg may even come across an original set of unstamped rails.

    Nothing is unrestorable, it only a matter of how much you want to spend. Looks too good to cut up but then I am a great dreamer.

    I'm with you WBute... you only have so much time and sometimes projects like that are not impossible but improbable with the time you have at your disposal.

    There is probably someone out there that will love her enough and restore it.
