Photos from a car show yesterday

Just mine, though. When the field cleared it was a great opportunity. My '68 long bed.

What kind of wood did you use in your bed and what was the color of the stain? Very nice truck.

Quarter sawn red oak - from the lumber yard - milled and finished by a friend. He used a water based stain he mixed up - he made some samples and I wanted it as red as possible. He used my old boards as a drill and router template. A bit of a perfectionist he is. He hand sanded all the boards with small pieces of sandpaper on each of the stain and finish coats - about 8-9 hours sanding each time. He ended up putting on 13-14 coats of Epiphanes marine varnish - and three coats of a crystalline wax...

Beauityful truck, nice pics, that blue looks very classy. Just a tip next time take some shots with the camera about a foot or two off the ground. Thats how the magazines get those awesome shots.

agreed - I normally use my real camera instead of the iPhone, and I need to do just that!
