69 GMC Rebuild

Am restoring a 69 GMC step side short bed C1500 and need to find the dimensions for the wood slats for the truck bed. Any suggestions?

Re: 69 GMC Rebuild

Don't tell me you're going to try and cut them yourself? Think of how much your time is worth compared to buying the pre-cut lumber... If you don't have the $$$ now, hold off until you do. It will REALLY be worth it in the long and short run!

But keep in mind, this is just the opinion of one man who's not an expert wood worker... Good luck!
