Re: Tonneau bed covers

I have one on my 69 L/B. My thoughts are do alot of shopping prices vary alot. The one I got snaps onto the alumin bows with no drilling into the truck bed. If you don't mind just holes for the gas struts you can get one that will angle slightly upright as an assy. These are the newer type styles no longer do they screw the snaps into the bedside anymore. I have seen prices vary $150-250 for the basic same product.

I have the same type. You can remove it in 5 seconds and put back on in a minute. Mine is a Lund but I don't have a part number. It has 4 clamps on each side that aluminum rails drop into and then when you snap it down that holds the rails in place.

Re: Tonneau bed covers

Was a little dirty when I took the pictures.

I bought it locally I think for around $300

Keeps it dry and stands up to the snow.

I like it alot/
