Show me your bed covers, '67-'72 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BraveDave · 07-29-2010, 01:13 AM

I have decided to go ahead and find a bed cover for my '71 Cheyenne Super. I have no idea what's the best on the market. I want something as clean-looking as possible. Let's see what you did with yours.

Ackattack · 07-29-2010, 08:56 AM

got it from here: http://www.checkerpro.com/2.html

Beuford · 07-29-2010, 10:42 AM

Tonneau Masters no drill, fits inside the bed rails. We've put over 9000 miles on and the cover stayed tight and flat in Colorado's 98deg heat.

Gaylord lid.

What is the part number of your cover? I looked it up and it doesn't show our year of trucks?

reds_racing · 07-29-2010, 04:57 PM

ACKAttack, What does a cover like that cost? They don't have pricing on their site.

big_al_71 · 07-29-2010, 05:03 PM

Nice covers guys! Do any of these places build ones for long boxes or longhorns?

The one I have (see above) is custom made, so yeah, they'll make one for a long bed. It may be a little more though.

**70cst** · 07-30-2010, 08:47 AM

I want one for the Circuit Rider that is water tight or at least close, one that I don't want to drill any holes, and a soft roll up type cover.

extd56 · 07-30-2010, 09:07 AM

Here is one that is on my crew cab.

How much do those weigh, and how big a hassle is it to take off?

hayhauler71 · 07-29-2010, 10:02 PM

This is a Sportmaster soft top

These bed covers were great!!!

71gmcC15 · 05-13-2020, 10:36 AM

Toppers are technically bed covers

Andy4639 · 05-13-2020, 10:50 AM

My cover was bought over 30 years ago.
I've had several people ask why I put it on my truck. It was for work. Back when outages lasted 90-120 days you needed more than just clothes to live away from home for that long and needed to be able to lock it. It did it's job and still does. I can lock it and it's water tight. The back side opens up.
There have been a few people on here call it ugly, but doesn't matter to me. I didn't build my truck for them.

**Dieselwrencher** · 07-29-2010, 10:41 PM

I need to measure my longhorn and see if I install a standard over the rail tool box, if a swb cover will fit it.
