can you guys post some pics of your trucks with bed covers.
thinking that id like to put one on to protect the bed and give me some time before i get to working on the bed itself. gotta sand or sandblast or something.
getting cold here in jersey, so figure i can protect bed with a cover.

any pics and info on where i can pick one up for a decent dollar would help.
thanks

jasonroman · 12-14-2010, 01:28 PM

Put a Extang on my 97 two and a half years ago, Use nothing but their Tonno Tonic on it and it still looks like new.

This place had the best price I could find at the time; http://www.truckchamp.com/tonneau-co...ng/series/tuff

Will likely put the same on my 74, IMO.....Snaps down the side scream cheap !

We mounted angle iron along the bed rails, the two sides and the back of the bed. Built a frame out of pressure treated 1x2's. Went to a local sign shop and got some aluminite(two pieces of aluminum sandwitching corregated plastic, very light) scraps, in other words signs they had discontinued or was no longer able to use. Come in 4x8 sheets 3/8's inch thick. $20 for two sheets. Screwed it down to the frame, added a sheet of plywood underneath for strength and mounted it on the bed it's not done Plan on covering it
