Perhaps one of you younger fellers could clear this up. LOL
Thanks Lawson. My original bed floor definitely does not have the bumps, nor does any other '36 bed floor I find pictures of. I think the rendered image displayed on Mack Hils website as well as Macs is just a generic image used for all years. I do wonder what years actually have the bumps.

I plan to order the bed floor this week from Mack Hils and will post an image of it once I have it. From what I have heard about Mack Hils, I am sure whatever I get will be correct.

Thanks
