Question Canopy needed

Hey, does anyone know where I can get a canopy for my 94.5 F250 PSD standard cab at a reasonable price? White works for me, and I need it in 3 weeks. Please let me know here or mail me directly at andyw@universal-micro.com.

Thank you!!

Maybe this is a dumb question, but what is a canopy?

Hey if you don't know then it's a great question!

A canopy is one of those covers on your bed with a door and windows and such.

A Tonto cover is the type of cover that goes over your bed flat along the bed rails (low profile look).

hope this helps! :-)

Ahhhhhhh, I guess being from the midwest, we call those things by different names. They are camper shells around here

Try www.craigslist.com. You should be able to find someone who is getting rid of one fairly cheap. I've seen them go for $200-300 in really good shape.

Oh yes, I ahve been scouring Craigslist for some time. Problem is 99% don't fit our truck year/body style.


My search continues.

I hear ya! I looked for about 2 months to find a fiberglass tonneau cover for mine. I finally found one on eBay for $150, but I've got to drive 500 miles to get it.

Good luck!

I though the same thing. We call 'em camper covers or shells and the low profile is tonneau or bed cover.

Also, check your local camper shop. Around here, they get beds and camper shells that they've upgraded and are selling for the owner.

NW,

I have been. Im from Seattle, and the guys by you in Olympia only have newer body style shells. ALL want to sell me a new POS shell for way too much. I did find a guy in Puyallup though who has a Fiberglass cover for a reasonable price, so hoping it's still there in 3 weeks when I get back to Seattle to go take a look and buy if it is in decent shape.

Another local guy. Cool brudda. Now I know you're in the hood, I'll keep my eyes open for you. They show up in the local paper, too.

Do you believe THIS crap. I looked and looked and looked for 2 months to find something to fit my truck. FINALLY found a fiberglass tonneau cover 550 miles away and buy it and then one pops up locally AND it's the right color.
