1973 C20 Fleetside wood bed?

[MichiganFishn33]

I have a 1973 Chevy C20 Custom Deluxe Fleet side (only floor of bed remains) and I asked the owner who bought it new about how it has a wood bed when I can't find anything about a wood bed in a Long box Fleetside, he said he thinks it was an option but he couldn't remember. Anyone have some information about if it was an option or what?
Any info would be appreciated, Thank You

i did read some where that in a fleetside you had the option of a wood or steel bed if you go on here they have replacement kits for the wood

It's an extremely rare option to be found these days, I think '80 might have been the last year for it.

I know of a 73 C10 350/4spd lwb with a wood floor thats used to heard cattle. They bought it new. Only has 1 dent in it now.

My dad had a 76 C10 with a 400 in it when I was a kid. I distinctly remember the wood bed floor. It was a longbed fleetside.
