Steve,

You might get lucky in finding one. Chances are there aren't too many survivors. Witht the newer trucks getting smaller and smaller there might be a chance that a new cap will fit...but then it probably won't fit with the styling.

Like alot of the other things on these trucks you might have to bite the bullet and hand fabricate your own.

good luck
Bobby

I'm attempting to locate the Blue Book Vendors catalog from the era that has this stuff, as they still might be in business.
Maybe 4speed can step in here w/ his Blue Book Vendors Catalog & find it.

I had a older one that had a wooden frame very heavy. I had to shorten it to get it to work. And make something so that the door and the tailgate would close.
