Ahhh. Did somebody say Booth? 8)

 

LOL

Where is he these days anyway?

 

Probably whistling his way to Canada for 1.80 per mile

 

lol....I'm still here. In Las Vegas at the moment.

 

Mine too....

 

You guys just don't know. I have it on good authority that Steve has bought the body shop that is doing Revs work. Rumor has it that Rev's truck is undergoing secret and extensive modifications as we speak.

It's in there somewhere.

 

Rev that floor looks ridiculous with all those streaks in it! Then you go and try to put some junk antique malibu seats in this thing? Hell no! Put you a wood floor in, then go get you some Bostrom Lowrider seats in and make this thing look first class! I am afraid your interior is gonna look like its jurry rigged! I will give you some props on the exterior as it seem as if it is gonna look pretty good. Quit watching Trick My Truck and make this thing practical.

 

I saw a 379 with pergo wood floors in it. They looked like crap from regular use (moisture makes them buckle at the joints). I'm glad I changed my mind on them, because it's clear they don't hold up under normal conditions.

Now if you'd like to pay for a one piece wood grain floor ($775 plus shipping at 4 State Truck), I'd be happy to put it in my truck to make you happy.

The floor will be redone in RhinoLiner when I get the truck back.

Bostrom Lowrider seats are boring. Anyone can throw that crap in their truck. It kind of defeats the purpose by putting bolt on crap straight out of the Iowa 80 catalog into it.

That's one of the nice things about everything I am doing in the interior: It is all reversible if it doesn't work or doesn't look right. I made it a point to keep it that way because I am trying things that are out of the ordinary.

BTW, those seats are hardly "junk".

The waterfall is already built, and every cabinet in the truck is already removed. :P

 

Your right Rev, Pergo is junk. I don't like in houses either.
If you still interested in wood floor I would use unfinished hardwood flooring, then use a marine grade polyurethane (2-3 coats). That should withstand the abuse.

I do think that one piece floor you mentioned is nice. After seeing some of the wood floors that were put in the trucks at the MATS competition, I will say that if someone doesn't have the skill and tools they should not attempt it themselves. One truck in particular looked good till I looked up around the pedals, he neglected to put some kind of trim around his (awful) cuts.

Just a thought but have you ever thought of a tile floor?
