Title: FC Ute Tub Finish Post by: Jolls on November 04, 2023, 07:24:06 PM Hi Team
I have searched the internet high and low and don't think I've seen one picture of tubs that match. I also have no ideas how the tub was done originally. I have seen options, refurbs that include pressed metal, timber, timber and metal, checkerplate, marine carpet, and combinations. Can someone tell me, or provide a pic of, what an original tub looked like so I can start work on pulling together a plan.

Body colour is always there on the exposed metal inside the tonneau, under various supplementary finishes, the most popular in my experience being the grey salt and pepper fleck.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll see what I can find but will probably opt for stainless as opposed to black steel. I haven't found masonite available 1/2 inch think so may have to use an A grade ply and use a router to embed some SS flat bar just proud of the surface. Maybe 25 x 3mm SS strips with countersunk SS screws. Cheers n Beers Craig |
