Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
That's right, show us your (or anyone's) VINTAGE, PERIOD camper shells/caps/toppers. That means no cabovers, no hangovers - we have plenty of threads for the big campers - this thread for caps/toppers/camper shells that cover the bed only

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Great idea Mark.. Sorry for the crappy pic but its picture of a picture. I talked with the son of the original owner of my truck and he sent me this pic digitally. He said this pic was taken a week or so after his Dad bought it in July 1972 and I guess this would be a period correct cap. I have no details on the cap.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
Here's mine. This top is old, leaks and is due for replacement. It has been on there since 1973, at least, as my FIL bought it then, with the shell on it. I'm going to get a replacement that has barn doors (I hope) so that I can put plywood on the back. I may buy a Harbor Freight trailer instead, then it won't matter what the doors look like.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
This is my '72 GMC K10 right after I brought it home. I have the camper on my 8' 69-72 copper trailer bed now. It's a Caravan Camper made in Reno, all steel and HEAVY! I've had it for sale on this site forever, but no bites.

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
That's my son's truck. We found it near Prescott, AZ. The guy we bought it from received it in trade for some goats. He didn't have any use for it and posted it on CL for $150. He gave me the dimensions and they were right on for the stepper. When I asked if he knew the type of truck his friend had, he said it was a 1967 C10 short bed step side.

Borrowing your picture.
Looking for a short bed stepside cap like this. Are these also made of unobtainium? |

Re: Caps, toppers, camper shells - ONLY!
I have an extra hard top for my blazer that I was thinking of converting to a cap for my SWB. Would it be possible? Any nice 6 foot caps out there?
