Toppers?

I have an 87 crew cab dually long box and have been searching for a topper. Im looking for a fiberglass, cab high topper that will fit and still look good. Ive looked for the obvious 73-87 but I cant find anything locally. Will anything else work that wont look horrible? Im in South Dakota so Ive been watching Craigslist in the surrounding area but Im not finding anything.

I think that Leer has told me they do not make them for our trucks anymore but the ones for he 78-94 Dodge do line up very well.

Re: Toppers?

Still looking for a topper. I have managed to find a few Ford ones. Anyone have a closer pic of a Ford topper on their truck? What about the Dodge 78-94 topper? The ones I have found are a few hours drive away. Would like to know if they work before I make the trip.

Re: Toppers?

are you talking about this ford style canopy?
only pics i have of my '77 with it. they fit, but personally i would hold out for an older chevy one. the ford fits fine, but from the side, makes the truck look like a humpback....

Re: Toppers?

The one n your crew cab is exactly what I want. Is it off of something other than 73-87?
