Newest Pictures of WOOD BEDS
. . . .
I haven't seen a "wood bed pictures" thread recently. There must be some more, recently finished wood beds, other then the one on my 70 C-10. ( red oak with two coats of dark walnut stain, followed by five coats of marine spar varnish ) Let's see some more . . . . . . . Last edited by Steve Hafner; 12-24-2011 at 07:03 PM. |

Re: Newest Pictures of WOOD BEDS
I have a thick rubber mat I would put in there if I was going to haul something, but it ain't like I'll be tossing firewood in there anymore!

Re: Newest Pictures of WOOD BEDS
Yes. I stripped, sanded, and re-stained the oak planks in my 8 foot bed last spring. Been hauling yard waste, engine parts, and canoes all summer. I did however lay down some protection when hauling over 1/2 ton of rocks.

Red oak and nothing goes into the bed without a moving blanket going down first.
