Hi Folks,
I just found and picked up an old wagon that needs some TLC. Everything is solid except the wood sides and floor. Just need to replace the wood and run some lights. Just wondering what kind of wood I should use foor the floor and walls. I have access to oak, pine, and I believe spruce. I was thinking to just buy 3/4" pine tongue and groove from our equivelant to HD but don't know if it is tough enough. I also have plenty of 3/4" exterior plywood. Seems like I read somewhere to stay away from the oak. Any advice would be appreciated. Also, what would be a good paint for the wood? I plan to paint it to match my IHC tractor.
Thanks,

Dave

Thanks. Guess I should have mentioned that I'd be using it for firewood, hay, a little manure and dirt hauling. I'll look for the yellow pine, but in the worst case will use the T&G pine and a rubber stall matt on top when hauling the nasty stuff. Can't look any worse than it does now.

Thanks again.


Dave
