Re: Truck covers
I recommend California Car Covers. They arent cheap but they have some really nice covers. I have one from my 94 fullsize & plan on ordering one for the 72 soon.
I am actually using the one from my 94 on my 72 now it fits with the exception that the mirror pockets are in the wrong location. |

Re: Truck covers
Bought one at pep boys it was cheep but fit nice because I have no outside mirrors. Less than $50.00 but all I use it for is to keep the dust off.

Re: Truck covers
Thanks for the responses, I've seen the California Custom ones, nice, but a bit pricey, and I'll check out the Pep Boy's one also. Thanks

Re: Truck covers
I got a Cali. cover for Christmas and it is awesome. It was pricey but well worth the investment! It will last me for a long time!

Re: Truck covers
2nd for JC whitney
Mine is 3 years old and works very well Saves a ton of wear and tear from just walking by the truck and I no longer have to wash the truck every week in the summer
