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.

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.

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.
