I love your truck... doesn't get to much better than that.

For the bed you could do what you are saying by simply putting spacers on top of the existing metal.

Kind of depends on how you use your truck. If you haul stuff in it like dirt, gravel, etc. the space between the floors would end up with "stuff" in it which would likely promote rust.

However if your truck is a cruiser and not a working truck it would probably be fine.

Were you thinking of an original wooden board style bed or using something like 4' x 8' sheet products?

If you used 4' x 8' sheet you could use (2) and splice it in the center with (1) original style metal or stainless bed strip. That is what I am planning for my stepside, I hope to get to this later this winter.
