I'm restoring a 55 E5 truck and pondered which box floor I wanted. In my case, I'm not interesting in making everything exactly stock so I considered metal or wood floors. Face it, wood looks really nice although it requires more maintenance. For me, the decision boiled down to cost. Classic Enterprises has a nice metal floor. I also needed the two middle cross members. The cost for all that with shipping would be $782.50. I then checked with Horkey in Minnesota. A complete oak floor with metal strips, fasteners and the two cross members with shipping came to $723.53, which is $58.97 less. I bought the Horkey floor. The quality is great and I look forward to finishing the box. Incidentally, the Horkey floor price includes a rear trim panel which covers the ends of the oak boards.
I wanted to share this information should anyone be considering such a decision.
