Re: wood bed floor

On my 1964 I went back to base model original...bought hard pine, milled it on the table saw and painted it black.

For my 1965 I'm gonna add a brace or two and go with trex...mill it like the pine and...no paint and no repaint.

Re: wood bed floor

I used the Mar-K kit for my 63. You're getting good quality made in Oklahoma USA stuff when you buy from them. Highest recommendations.
