The pine looks good,and the knots give it some character.My 55 has a cherry floor,and the 72 has an oak floor.No hauling in these trucks,just a couple of bagged up lawn chairs to use at the cruisins.I used a spar urethane finish on mine,brushed on 4 coats,with a lite sanding between coats,then sprayed the last coat on,for a mirror like finish.
