I'm looking for directions and pictorials of restoring the wood bed of a Fleetside body.

Just got my brand new 1964 Chevrolet longbed Fleetside home and the first project is to put wood on the pickup body floor. Nothing is there but the old metal strips that held the non existent boards. A lot of rattling and thrashing noises on the road.

I just got this home, drove it for 2 1/2 hours on the road with no problems and the truck drove beautifully. But I need to fix the 3 spd shifter and the rear body to use it.

A 1964 4wd K20 old truck and good frame will be delivered this week and we are starting to dismantle a 1977 K20 to start this project.

Have you poked around the making stovebolt a bed forum and/or poking around MAR-K website. Start with MAR-K and then you will be able to refine some questions.
I have used MAR-K products (and many others have as well). They deliver as promised and appear to be a very credible authority on all things beds.

Thanks for the input. I've checked and searched for detail discription on the bed flooring for a fleetside but I have discovered what I need to know. Thaks for the help.

I wanted to make a temporary bed and use the 2wd until I get the 4wd frame put together, then I will do a complete job on the body to mount on the new 4wd.

Thanks again
