I think to this day a fella could still find enough long leaf yellow pine to do a truck bed with. Most hand honed railroad ties are LLYP. I had enough to do my bed from pieces I had left. Its great wood. It'll last. The application of the marine varnish is to be followed. Just barely tacky and add a coat. Roll or brush. Even pine you can buy at the store , cup side down to prevent cupping. MV the heck out of it. In the pic with the wood on the trailer, behind to left is the raw wood I had to work with after it was slabbed out. It was worth it.
