60-66 Chevrolet and GMC Suburbans last US car with structural wood?
 
Any US cars or light trucks later than 1966 Chevrolet and GMC Suburbans that used structural wood in them? I can't think of any, for better or worse, that's another feather in their caps.

I can't think of any, but 60-66 Panels (C/K10 & C30) had wood floors also.

The step side beds used well into the squarebody years continued to use bed wood. The bed sides mount on top of the wood, and the wood is needed so the bed sits properly and doesn't flop around

67-72 suburbans had wood floors that rear seat bolted through. 2005 corvette had balsa wood layered between carbon fiber floors
