Tonneau Help

Okay, I ALSO cannot find a tonneau cover for my '65 long box flareside. I want to protect the wood in the bed. I don't necessarily need a folding or hinged fiberglass cover. Heck, a nice snap on would do me just fine. Any suggestions on where to look?

I am having the same problem with my 66 SB. I talked two LMC and they have a soft one that may fit. It would be nice to know how long Ford kept the bed demisions. I would think that from the mid 60s through about 96 when they changed body styles the bed would be close to the same size. Good luck and please keep us posted.

I have a tonneu on my 65 long bed styleside. Bought it from Truxedo. If they dont have one that fits then they can custom make it for you. The one on my truck just happens to be the same one for a 73 LB. Whats nice about the truxedo is it is flush with the top of the bed so nothing rubs on the paint. Also, it installs with clamps so no drilling is required. Good luck

Overall sizes are pretty much the same through the 80s, check out one say for 86 and see how close it is to your truck measurements.
