Tonneau covers for Stepsides? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know of a manufacturer who makes tonneau covers for our trucks? I'm thinking about getting one, did a internet search and came up w/nuttin. I see ones for the shortbed fleetsides but not the short steps.

Try Gaylord. I heard that they are a little pricey.
Goodluck

Mar-K also. I've heard the Gaylord are better.

I've had good luck with this ~ $400 hard cover from Checkmate. Not the most watertight one, but usually if it's raining, I drive my beater '75 F-100.

That's who I was thinking of, not Mar-K.
