I hope that wording is copied off the web..and not yours...as you can not sell off this site without being a member. Just checking. Looks like a decent top for the $

I understand. sorry.

Id say go for it...Good price. Just make sure you look at the feedback to make sure its all good.

I have thought of getting a hard cover at times...I have seen the real slim ones look so good.

If you buy it...give us some product feedback.

Re: Bed size help!!!!

You have the dimensions but there are other companies out there that sell tonneau covers that you may not know about. Here's one:

www.checkerpro.com.

They used to be in Benton, Kentucky but are now located in Texas. I have seen there products and they are good. You can buy one for our trucks that will have an aluminium frame and the cover will snap to that frame, so you don't have to drill any holes in the outside of the bed. Check out their website.

I spoke to them today and they do not make soft covers anymore only hard covers.

I can not find one anywhere in the usa for my 69 c10

There must be someone out there that still makes them

HELP Please.

Re: Bed size help!!!!

That's a pretty good company but I don't like the "basic style" of that bed cover. They make some that have shocks and open up like a trunk, and also some that roll up and you don't have the remove the rear crossbrace or middle braces. Not sure if they are out there for our trucks but it's worth searching...

I had the roll up kind on my dodge and loved it

here's a rollup, not for our trucks though
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Roll-...spagenameZWDVW

here is a flip one for our trucks..
