Camper Shell
Has anyone ever researched what other trucks have the same size Bed as say a 1966 Ford longbed.
Has anyone adapted any later model camper shells to their truck?
Is there a vendor that offers a camper shell for these trucks?
Thanks

RUMOR ONLY, muttered by my local cap/bedliner sales guy when asking about a tonneau for my longbed--some Dodges may be the same.

LOL, Wish it was that easy for me. Every camper company I've talked to across the country in my travels tell me the same thing. NOBODY makes a shell for my angled out top rails. Guess I'm gonna have to get a custom job...

Another place to look..old trailer parks, farms and ranches. Junkyards too. Once a scrounger...always a scrounger!

Thank Guys,
John, The soft tops won't work for camping. I may not need to stand up but the dog does, LOL.
ND- I'm not sure the last time I didn't stop to scrounge, LOL. It's in the blood. If you ever remember where to find either of those articles, please let me know.

Judi, I know I am slow, but please help me here, how does "NOBODY makes a shell for my angled out top rails" tie in with relieving yourself.
Hopefully with warmer weather coming I can get closer to the grove again.

Out along Holt Blvd in Pomona and Ontario, there must be a hundred camper dealers. On Valley Blvd in El Monte there are dozens more.
Have an email address? You can email me off FTE.
When one has Basset Hounds, it's difficult to tell whether they are standing or not. But mostly they're just flopped down on sofas.
