Sorry to say but Randy left this world a long time ago and the site threw all our galleries in the trash.. This is also an old thread..
I put a fiberglass lid on my pickup and I'm very happy with it

It's made by ******** ******** Truck Lids | Truck Bed Lids for Classics, Rancheros, El Caminos and current models.

2nd one, custom made with electric motors and heavy.


Here are the two that I've had,
