wood floor dimensions
 
Project "no-buck" needs a replacement wood bed floor. How thick is the floor supposed to be? It's so deteriorated measureing won't do much good.

I'll start going through scrap wood to see what I can come up with....after all this is "no-buck" for a reason :D

I've done two 60-66's with T1-11 siding and have the dimensions for that method if you need them. I think 60-72 short fleets are all the same wood dimensions.

Would you mind sending me the dims for your 60-66? I have a 65 SWB that I am in the process of doing with Black Walnut. Would hate to miss a drill hole on those boards as they arent cheap.

plz send to ken.trussell@ktrussell.com

cheers

Lots of information on Mar-K's web site.

I have a new wood kit out in the storage building I will measure the thickness. I used cut up power poles for the wood for the Fantasy Truck..... worked good and was cheap.

Edit: My dial calipers say it is .780 thick....
