Tonneau covers?
« on: January 31, 2018, 09:05:39 PM »
Guys, anyone buy a tonneau cover for a square lately?  Just wondering what's stI'll available.
Years ago I had a soft one on my 86. It shrank something awful and was a PITA to connect the snaps.

the site owner (Captkaos) is a dealer for some covers. i would email him and tell him what you have (i.e. bed size, tool box) and what type you want and see what he can do for you

email him at webmaster@73-87chevytrucks.com

If you want something that fits inside make sure it is truly square before you waste your time and money.

bought a used extang roll up cover in excellent shape. Fits inside the rails, fits and looks nice. It was about 5 years ago now.

I have an Access roll up low profile cover on my 84 shortbox  I put on a few years ago.  Fit was decent and it looks good.  Holding up pretty well for the cost and it spends plenty of time outside.

Tommy,    I bought a Truxedo lo pro tonneau cover for my 87 Chevy short box this past summer.
It fits beautiful. It rolls up with cross braces as 1 pc. Also fits inside. Top notch cover. Had 3 others
For my daily drivers. Check it out.       Jerry
