Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!

There's absolute period correct, like from same year or during that body style, and there is period correct from somewhere along the way. Like in the future someone might do a period correct LS-swapped truck with all the parts used, paint, interior mods, wheels being from the late teens we are in now. My cap puts my truck later in the '70s-early '80s when it was 5-10 years old. That's when a lot of trucks start being fixed up by the guy who bought it used. I don't remember lift kits coming on till about that time, and tires going over 32-33" on 4wds.
