stoage cover suggestions
I am looking to buy a light dust cover style storage cover. I bought one at Menards for my Dads truck (Regular cab long box) and it just doesn't fit.
We keep the truck in a garage year around but I want to get him a dust cover and a extra layer to help when people walk through the garage to get into the house. We have spent way to much time for extra scratches or what not. who makes a reasonable priced cover? I have a 1968 C20 long box. I see LMC has some but not sure if anyone else has some and personal references are better sometimes then buying something your not sure of. Thanks Chad |

Re: stoage cover suggestions
There are a few out there for sure. I had an old beat up one with severe rips/tears in it that came with the truck when I bought it so I wanted to replace it ASAP. I ended up buying LMC's top of the line cover and upon receipt and inspection, it looked like it might be the same cover that it replaced. I have no idea how old the the previous cover was or what kind of conditions it was subjected to so only time will tell if the new cover suffers the same fate as the old one. I will say that the LMC cover currently shows no signs of wear and it fits my 71 C20 perfectly, with room to spare but not too loose either. They are kind of expensive and it would be nice not to have to replace it anytime soon but the bottom line is the truck is covered. I've had it for 5 months so we'll see how it holds up - so far, so good.

Re: stoage cover suggestions
I bought a waterproof cover for my 69 from these guys. They have indoor covers as well.

Re: stoage cover suggestions
Don't forget that some covers don't take into consideration - your antenna
