i like how the soft tonneau cover rolls over the rail and under. that should look pretty clean installed. i'm thinkin maybe one for my 57

they look nice but the only thing is would water get in on my wood bed???? the soft ones wrap around and under the lip of the bed im affraid the flush mounts would let alot of debrie and water through.....

The two places I talked to quoted about $900-$1000 price range. Too steep for me. Going with no cover for now.

Your truck looks real good by the way!

For a temp bed cover in the shop, a twin size (I think) fitted bed sheet fits right over the top and will keep crap off of your wood.
