Re: Complete wood floor kit
Was able to piece it together at Classic Parts of America. What do you guys think for the hardware? Just stainless or polished stainless?. Frame off restoration show truck, but will drive it

Re: Complete wood floor kit
What he said I was finding the wood alone for $349 at the lowest I went to lowes and bought 1X8X8 and ripped it down, the cost was just over $100 for the wood then I used a small can of stain and a quart of polyurethane (marine grade) making the whole thing about $175.. If you need strips LMC sells them cheap I personally did the galvanized ones and when I rhinolined the box inner walls I rhinolined them too I used stainless bolts and it looks kinda cool Im doing a shop truck thing so this may or may not work for you

Re: Complete wood floor kit
I found the wood at Classic Parts for $280 drilled and the hardware for and strips about $450 out the door for everything. Oak floor. Not sure if I am going to use polyurethane, or clear it.

Re: Complete wood floor kit
