'65 Shortbed Fleet side bed cover options??

So I know you can buy them new for the truck but I was wondering if anyone has found other truck covers that will work? In other words opening up my options for finding a nice used one that will work.

I just had my other one replaced and Truxus said to send in pictures and dimensions and it would be made. Back in the day plywood and vinyl did the job. If I had to ship cover it would cost as much as new vinyl.

Thanks guys! Yeah, I toyed with the idea of just making one but thought I might get lucky and find something that will work. Chances are slim to none that somone will have one around here specificaly made for my truck, used.
