what is Bruce Horkey's (show deck)?

hayhauler71 · 03-25-2011, 08:23 PM

I have seen them in person at back to the 50s car show in St. Paul MN. and they are very nice. But I made my own for the 1/4 of the price. It is removable but would take some work.

STOCKISH · 03-26-2011, 04:27 PM

WOW! That looks nice enough for me. That is gorgeous, very nice truck.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 03-26-2011, 06:08 PM

Nice ride 7deetwo

70c10 · 03-26-2011, 07:19 PM

Both trucks look nice! I'm surprised nobody on the board has made their own version of a show deck like 7DEETWO's.

Here is a few as I was building it than I had to disassemble to put on the finish. Also the tailgate is done in maple and black vinyl but do not have pics at this time. The edges have been veneered and is protected by my tonneau cover.

c10crazy · 03-26-2011, 11:20 PM

This company sells a kit called the Retro Liner to cover your steel floor also: http://bedwoodandparts.com/i-2895049...de-pickup.html

96blazr · 03-28-2011, 08:03 AM

I'm finishing my Show Deck right now. I start the Varnish process this week. I chose the Ash.
I'll have pics up soon.

i met a guy at a car show this weekend with the floor in his truck looks just as nice. they are gonna send me a sample piece for free to see if thats the one iam going to go with. i will post pics when i get in.

VA72C10 · 03-28-2011, 08:47 PM

would be a good solution for someone with a solid bedfloor as far as rust but a bunch of dents in it. Could still remove it to haul things when not at a show.

96blazr · 03-28-2011, 09:01 PM

Actually, you can remove it pretty easy. If you go to the web site and watch the Vid with Stacy he breaks it down.
Some pics of me doing the Finish sanding on the "Show" side.
I'll have more as it goes along.

weircc · 03-28-2011, 09:16 PM

cant wait to see pics if you dont mind me asking how much did it set you back

Slick67 · 03-28-2011, 09:48 PM

I could not find anyone who sells the chrome rails between the wood slats. Also the peice 7DEETWO has (a chrome filler peice in the back) looks great, any sources on that??

mark-k sells the strips in a highly polished stainless that looks like chrome. They sell them with the bolt holes or without set up for hidden fasteners....
