Wood bed floor instead of metal

Thanks for all the replies!! I've been away for the holidays, I'm so happy to have finally gotten it, yes it had the wood floor [needs replaced] and the rubber floor mat. That makes sense that maybe it was a year end sale and the city picked it up with the strange list of options. It is missing its rear bumper, would be awesome to pick up an original white one with a Helena dealer sticker attached. My plan so far is to keep the original paint intact, try to straighten out the dents in the bed, replace all the exterior bright work from front to back and restore the interior back to its original glory including a tach dash I got in the deal. Mechanically wise I'd like to replace all brake equipment, bushings etc and just go with a crate 350/350 combo I believe. I want to keep it looking like it is yet have a mechanically dependable truck with a drop dead gorgeous stock interior!! I'm sure I'll change my mind as I get in to it but so far that's where I'm headed.
