Looks like "work completed" to me. Or "no work necessary." What are your plans here?

I have some new stainless strips and have plans on putting new wood in. I have not decided on wood or stain yet. The strips in now are pretty tough from being a farm truck and the all black just is not for me. I may also widen the wheel wells a little to fit more tire in. I think a 325 would be about perfect! I will be saving all this stuff for a second truck I will be getting from my uncle in a few years that I will be turning into a 4x4.

My temporary bed. I used regular white wood boards from the local lumber supply yard, three 1x12 and two 1x8. Two of my original bed strips were not reusable, so the five boards worked out well, and only took ripping two of the 1x12's to line up with the original strip mounting holes. Primed everything with Kilz and rattle can flat black. I just needed something inexpensive and functional until I get the funds to one day do it right.

I'm thinking about LineX'ing my bed, as I'll use it for renovation stuff. Anyone done this? What would be the best material to use underneath? Sealed exterior-grade plywood?

**Chevy Fleetside** · 06-13-2014, 07:45 PM

plain old plywood for now. It won't see the outdoors and is only tempory. When I get the bed done I am probably going to use African Mahogony.

62 Barnfind · 06-13-2014, 09:34 PM

Pine from Lowes with golden oak stain , I cut the wood myself from GMC Paul's web site.

**jayoldschool** · 06-13-2014, 09:53 PM

TREX fascia board, exact thickness of factory boards, cut myself to GMC Paul's dimensions. Wanted something that would be good outside with zero maintenance.

so many choices

weeniewawa · 06-15-2014, 06:13 PM

this is made from old aluminum slats from a walking floor trailer that has been out of business since the 90's. they are all bolted down from underneath and so is the bed. no exposed bolts at all

**Captainfab** · 06-16-2014, 01:06 AM

That's a nice looking flatbed

I like the aluminum deck. It looks like you have some popup tiedowns?
