Re: POST your 60-66 Panel truck only pictures

For anyone with a panel in resto stage with the rear floor made up of the individual planks-Please PM me if you are able to take any measurements of the plank width. I'd also like to see the under-floor support layout.

I don't think the panels or burbs were individual planks like the trucks. They used two sheet of plywood, joined in the middle.

Are you asking if anyone has converted to individual planks, you would like measurement?

Mike,
I was under the assumption that the panels had individual planks due to the installation of the metal slats. I was incorrect. I recently obtained a full set of the metal slats from a fellow in California and found the wood was also plywood. I will be doing individual planks in my suburban now..I've got the slats laid out where they'll be located and I will be doing lap joints or butt joints with a lap on the middle boards.. I'm still working on it and will take photos as I go.. Unfortunately the edges along the body are not perfectly straight and will require some massaging on the outer edges.. This won't be a totally straight-forward job..

My understanding is, this was done to minimize potential leaks where exhaust fumes could get into the cabin and cause health issues. Trucks never have this issue since the bed is not part of the cab.

Unless you look under the floor, from the top, they look like individual planks due to the metal strips.
