Beautiful truck!

Just curious -- were these wood floors originally painted black? What species of wood was used from the factory?

I've seen a few wood-beds around, including a couple in a local salvage yard, but haven't known much about them. I'm surprised they made it the whole way to 1987, but I guess someone must have wanted them.

Does your SPID sticker acknowledge the wood bed in any way?
