Re: Truck Caps, Camper Shells, Toppers... call them what you will, lets see them
I always wanted a fiberglass one with no side windows for my crewcab dually, but as common as they were in the early 90s they seem to be non-existent now

Oddly enough, I just saw a slammed mid-80s crew cab dually in satin black pulling a trailer with a pro-street 69 Camaro on it this weekend... it was a mean set up... wish I would have been able to get a pic of it. |

I figured you'd like it, it was kind of costly to get done but worth it I think.
I love the history of that time also. The ship was really cool, I can't imagine how crazy it must have been on that thing during a battle. Thank you for your service! |

Just sold the cap off my '79. I had been thinking about making some wood bed rails for it for a couple of years and the cap had seen better days. Good timing to sell it and get started on a cool project. It's funny when a guy with a '13 Silverado wants your old cap :chevy:

cap #2 was purchased today for the pickup trailer #3 .
i wasn't looking for a cap but found this for 100 bucks on c-list . then my buddy wanted to use some plywood i had from odd jobs left over to make sides and roof and cover it with a tarp for his little utility trailer for when he pulls the old carpet out of his house . i said screw that go buy this and use my pickup trailer . so we went and pulled the trailer up to the guys place and got it for 50 bucks and we split that for 25 each and i didn't drive or use my truck or fuel and i get to keep the cap . 2 handle rear gate / 2 sliders 1 per side / solid front window / few dings and dents but solid / just need to run a bead of caulk down the roof seam thats a little drippy is all . oh ya and the trailer is getting newer better rims monday as these old rusty crusty stock ( ford ) rims got to go . c-10 back half frame / 4 leaf rear springs / 14ff rear axle cut pumpkin out and sleeved it for dumby axle / capped the spindles off & cut the axle off the caps / grease packed the bearings and rollin on 265/75/16 tires . |

yep this is my 3rd one . still have them all also . #1 is now offroad only from heavy rust but she has a cap and holds my winter firewood for shop heat .
they tow so nice and smooth and dont bounce like a basket ball like other trailers of the same size . the key to do is the long tongue . #1 had a 10" shorter frame section left over before the tongue was installed . it was o.k. but #2 i left it longer by the 10" or so and it was a nicer pull and much better at backing up . so #3 got the same longer frame setup and tongue combo . |
