Re: Wood bed kits
Classic Parts of America sells them. I bought my Oak and Stainless strips and hardware from them and I was very happy with the quality. Remember that most if not all of these supply places sell the wood planks unfinished. I used Watco Teak oil for the stain and Man O' War Marine Spar Varnish for the finish. Steel wooled the wood between each coat. Came out real good. Now I can't throw garbage and old truck parts in the back of my truck anymore.

Re: Wood bed kits
We've used 2 Mar-K kits now, very happy with the quality of their parts, there may be some a hair cheaper, but Mar-k has nice stuff. Sometimes they offer free shipping, and/or 10 percent off if yoouu catch a sale, the shipping can add up on bigger stuff like that.
