1978 F150 camper shell recommendations

Did a search but not finding too much info. Anybody with a 78 or similar F150 short bed buy a new camper shell? I've searched the various manufacturers websites and few of them list anything older than a 80's model F150. I suppose I will have to actually go to a dealer for a definitive but has anybody purchased a shell lately for an older 70's model F150?

Looks like I'm not the only one looking. Perhaps finding a used Ford one is going to be my only option...

I'm told that one can be built, but probably a lot of $$.

OK, rather than start a new thread I'll hijack an older thread. I've got this used camper shell that fit on an 80's truck but doesn't quite have the cab "slant" for our dentsides. Still, any idea who the mfg is? Any ideas where I can get the rubber strip for the back?
