Well I'll admit I haven't taken either truck apart yet, but I'm real sure the 1-ton is planks and though not as sure on my 1/2-ton, I know I've seen 1/2-tons that were planks.[/b]I have now taken my 1/2-ton panel a part. Turns out the cargo floor is plywood.
This is a '53 GMC and while I have no reason to think the floor has been replaced, other parts of this truck were not original, so I could not claim with any certainty that the floor is orginal. However it does have the heat shield in place and none of the metal around the edges look to have been removed in the past.
Forgive me for bringing an old thread back to the top, but thinking about that plywood floor I remembered being pretty certain I'd said this one was planks. And until you punch a hole in it with a hole saw it does look like planks.
