Flareside Bed Question

Regarding '61 to '66 Flaresides, what color was the wood bed floor painted from the factory? Was it body color?

This image is from the 66 brochure. Not sure about all of the Slick years.

Thanks. GM was painting the bed floors black regardless of truck color until sometime before '67. All the original '67 and newer trucks I have seen had body color wood bed floors. Unless someone finished the wood and used chrome strips......

FYI up to 86 the end of flare sides the wood was body color unless someone redid the wood and wanted something different.
