Jul 24^th, 2004, 11:05pm Hi, can anybody recommend the best type of wood or ply wood to board out a trailer. The trailer is kept outside in all weathers, so what would you suggest I treat the wood with? Regards, Chris. 8)

James Lathams did them a few years ago and probably still do, They went by the name of "Truckdeck" Jason
