I agree with Johnnyreb, just use a varnish sealer to give it that natural wood color.

Re: starting a build thread {PROJECT RARE STAKE}

What color are you going to paint the truck?

If your going with a light color I'd sand it down and seal it as is.

If you going with a dark color (red, black, etc) I'd do a cherry stain with sealer.

Looks good
