    Hey Mike! Thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement; glad you liked the calendar! Terrific job sorting out the custom box floor, and the trailer fenders look right at home once you filled the sides in... I am with you on the wooden floor too; it just looks right on these old pickups! All the very best as always from me and Miss Frankers...

    If you can lay your hands on some red oak, that will look flat out good. Do a standard finish on it before you lay it in but definately some oak. The red is gorgeous when its got a good finish on it. The trick to getting it right is sand each layer of varnish or whatever you pick for a sealing coat. When you can get it thick enough, you can go on with a good wet sanding. Make the finish smooth as a baby's butt. I love the original idea for the truck. Working it out, as you go, is about the only way you could get this done. I hope you remembered Valentine's bro. Your wife deserves the best you can give her.

    Scott at ColdWarMotors is a classy fella. The "boogie van" is his paint job. The 60 Fury splice is my favorite. He's very humble, but that man can do some metal/painting/rebuilding junk motors that I've never seen anywhere else on TH-cam. Nice shout out! This truck is coming along nice, and I prefer the look of a wood bed. Can't wait to see this project done!

The projects may not all be something I’d own, but there’s always a lesson to learn, and it’s more entertaining than watching someone weld AMD panels to a rusty cowl…

    Mike, I am loving how the truck is shaping up.
    Wooden bed for sure. Anything else just wouldn't be true to the truck as it sets. You're going for that original look of a truck that's used regularly for work. So go back with wood.
    If you had gone with a flashy high gloss show truck paint job, then diamond plate, or something else could have been ok, but not this time.
    I haven't received notification of any new videos from TH-cam in a long time. Have you been posting? Or am I just not getting notified?
    It's good to see a new video anyway.
