Realize the brand is wrong. Passed this thing many times over the years.

**Ol Blue K20** · 10-07-2019, 10:13 PM

That's cool pics. I used to have a dodge just like that one.

**Getter-Done** · 10-07-2019, 10:17 PM

Great picture.
I think it is talking to you.
Take me home with you.

Did you install carpet in it? I think the tack strip would hold.

I’d put Air.O carpet in it... no tackstrip needed.
Astro turf if it was Bill Clinton’s but that a different story.

So you've watched since there was no tree? Ain't nothin' but a live edge job there. If someone doesn't cut that tree we'll have this:

That all wood Ford doesn't need carpet. It has hardwood floors. That was a poplar option that year

**davischevy** · 10-07-2019, 11:58 PM

The wood never made it to the bed on this one. The truck was parked and the tree didn't yield.

**special-K** · 10-08-2019, 05:56 AM

It's obvious to us all, these 67-72 GM Trucks are a renewable resource

**Steeveedee** · 10-08-2019, 11:24 AM

^^ That's the Chevy version of "Christine", growing back out of the ground.

Ain't that the truth!

^^^ This is what happens when you take your engine to an engine builder with slow turn-around time. The good part is there's plenty of wood there to make it a crate engine

**davischevy** · 10-10-2019, 09:02 PM

Wait a minute, is the wood bed listed on the SPID?

**Steeveedee** · 10-10-2019, 10:08 PM

Well, I wood like to see it.

**special-K** · 10-11-2019, 09:18 AM

I thought only CST, Cheyenne, and Cheyenne Super got woodgrain.

I'm pretty good under the hoods of these trucks. But that one stumps me

I know where the root of the problem lies

**Steeveedee** · 10-11-2019, 10:15 AM

If we run out of comments, we may have to branch out.

Couldn't leave that alone.

**Ol Blue K20** · 10-11-2019, 10:41 AM

I think ya'll is barking up the wrong tree......

I'm knot too happy about the waste of a good truck. In fact, I'm barking mad.

Which if I remember correctly is the same as a 5.7 Board Feet.

It's definitely a stick.

And probably a tree-seven-tree rear axle with leaf springs.

At least it comes with a complete maintenance log.

This thread is starting to go against the grain.
