Longbed with wood flooring

[Boonie]

I recently picked up a 75 k20 that has a wood floored bed. the truck body itself is pretty much beyond repairing. what I wanted to know is if these beds are any more desirable than a normal long bed or not. It needs restored, in pretty rough shape. Just wanted some input from someone who knows more about it than I do. Thanks

I've never seen a fleetside square body with a wood bed floor. 67-72s yes never a square so if you can post up some pics that would be cool.

They are quite rare. I've only seen maybe 10 in my lifetime.

1973-75

That's pretty cool.

1973-75

It was available later than that too, at least through '77. Ray McAvoy's truck is a '77 and recently on the Columbus CL there was an all original appearing '77 C10 with the wood floor.

It's not in the brochure or parts books later than 1975. Interesting.

hmm. guess maybe I should clean it up a bit and not scrap it out.

So exactly how rough is this K20 anyway? Got anymore pictures?

I bought this one for the frame and axles. the cab is shot. one front fender is probably usable without a lot of work. the bed could be restored. I don't have any pictures yet

That bed would be perfect for a mud truck or drag truck.
