I used 3 coats of Pelucid and 4 coats of Minwax Helsman Spar Urethane. http://s1094.photobucket.com/albums/i442/nesto426/Truck%20Bed/?action=view&current=truckbed.jpg I chose poplar from a local lumber yard here in town and gave them the dimension and a diagram of how to make the cuts. I think it turned out nice. Tom 1965 Chevy C10, 230 straight six, 2WD, 4-speed manual

Nice/good work. 1937 Chevy Pickup In the Gallery 1952 Chevy Panel In the Gallery More photos 1950 Chevy Coupe Pictures! I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd. I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you
