FTE is the best Ford truck forum I had ever found.

It is the best forum period in my experience. Very active and everyone (mostly) is very friendly and helpful. I was on an RV forum that was mostly an argument forum between two guys that knew everything. Another hobby forum that didn't welcome new members. Then there is the VW bug forum. I think there are three active members and the new people that join to ask a question then disappear. Keep up the good work.

Discussions and cordial disagreements good but arguments ruin forums.
This is one of the nicest forums to be a part of, I`m glad for the privilege.

I put bedliner in my '66 but plan on putting carpet in once the truck is done. My reasoning was that if it gets wet it will be sealed and keep the floor from rusting.

There is very little else out on the internet for 57-60 Ford trucks.

That looks much nicer than my washed out red floor but at least it is painted. This picture makes it look a bit shiner than what it is.

This was my reasoning too. How long ago? How did it work out as far as cleanup and the rough texture? Have you found any downside to using bedliner over say a good paint?

I just did mine a few weeks ago and work continues on putting the truck back together. Can’t see what the texture will hurt under the carpet. Given my rate of progress it will likely be several years before I get to carpet. I did the inside of a Bronco that ran topless in the summer years ago and never had a problem with it. Never had carpet in it though.
