Hey Joe,
It looks great! You even thanked your old FTE buddies - extra nice for all the old timers here on the forum. I like the straight forward look of your cab - If you don't mind my asking what did you use for the floors? It doesn't look to be carpet - I like it - I've left mine with a bed liner look for now but I'd like to put in some sound proofing & some sort of flooring.

Great article on a fabulous truck. You truck makes me want to restore an extra one just so I can have a sweet looking wooden stake bed.

Thanks Ben, I have the original rubber floor mat in the truck, it had a black carpet when I got it, but I ordered the mat from Classic Haulers and am much happier with that.
