My truck has had a frame up rotisserie restoration and it is almost done. What is the best make of truck cover for our trucks and best place to buy one? Thank you.

I have a custom made cover from "WOLFS" that fits my truck like a glove & even has a little room on the hood for my Cowl induction. I can take a picture with the cover on tomorrow if you want to see what it looks like.

I got a custom fit Wolf brand (Noah model) with mirror pockets for my dads 70 longbed from this place 2 years ago for $192 delivered. http://www.global-accessories.com/pr...D=none&ACTION=
This cover is really padded and waterproof. He has had a piece of roof slate slide off his house roof and not make a mark on the hood. Also the cover has held a foot of water while keeping the bed bone dry!. This is the best outdoor cover I have ever seen. I just found the Wolf custom fit (mirror pockets) cover for a longbed at Summitracing for a killer price!. The part number for this is WLF- 173-13234

I've got a Cal Car Cover for my burb and I love it. Let's see some pictures of yours.

Definitely Cal Car Cover. At my work we go through them a lot (work at a restoration shop) and they're great. They'll custom fit anything.

I also bought a Cal. Car Cover for my '71.

Seems to fit good.
