Camper Shells for 1977 Bonanza w/8 Foot Bed?
Does anyone know of current manufacturers of camper shells for older P.U.'s with 8 foot beds? I called one company in my area and they show nothing out there. He said they may have destroyed the molds. I once had a brand new camper shell but that was in 1978 or so. LONG time ago! Gave it away 10 years later after I no longer had a place to store it (apartment living). Need one to haul a large RC biplane in my old square body. I can use a bungee cord cargo net, and right now that's about the only option I can find. Thanks. LBJ

Depending on what your looking for here.
The canvas truck tops are universal, and work pretty well from what I am told. Universal work tops like this often work. https://www.4are.com/product/commerc...uminum/?cp=max If not you can sometimes find them on CL when you look far enough. |

Hi Ziegelsteinfaust. Not much on that site for 1977 trucks. Craig's List might be of help. But so far a cargo net looks like the most likely thing. Thanks, Lane

A cap from an '80-'96 F150 will also fit your truck.

Mark, that's a nice shell!
I needed something for right now so ordered a heavy duty cargo net. Got it mocked up with the large biplane and this will work for now. Maybe next year I can find a shell. |
