white soft cover

Looking at getting a soft bed cover from tekstyle. Was going to get black but noticed they have it in white also. Wondering if anyone has a pic of a truck with white soft cover. My truck is two tone blue and white.

Boy, it's tough to keep the black one clean.....the white one might be a nightmare!

Re: white soft cover

I wondered about that also but a white car is much easier to clean than a black one. Anyone got any pics of blue and white two tone with black soft cover?

Re: white soft cover

All colors are equal when it comes to cleaning.Black "shows" dirt more.I have a picture of my ochre/white`71 at night:

Re: white soft cover

you should go with white or that blue, but since blue isn't an option, the white would work. white would be my choice because it would match the roof

Re: white soft cover

I liked the white alot.It was installed in`89 to protect the wood floor when the camper was removed.No other color would do on this truck.I still have the cover,I parted the truck two summers ago.I`m going to have it shortened and use it on my low budget short bed.Jim Carter offers colors in a frame-type tonneau.Or,you can get one made by an upholstery shop any way you want.That`s what I do.I`m not afraid to drill 1/16" holes in a bed,like most guys are.If I ever want to fill them,it`s easy.That`s how these truck were done for decades.I think Jim`s site is www.oldchevytrucks.com
