You can try Craftec covers,that is what I had until I just had a custom one made for me. I don't know if they make them for a '52 but you can check,my brother and I installed it in a couple of hours. If we can do it,anyone can. Here's a few pics, good luck. L8R ZFLASH
Thank you, that is a really nice cover! I would like to see some pictures of how you fabricated your trailer hitch. I have very limited room because I moved my gas tank back there. By the way, your truck turned out beautiful.

Thanks for the compliments, the hitch was done by the PO and sinced removed because I too just mounted a new tank underneath the bed, along with new tubs. No pics yet of the new stuff because I dropped it off today for a new LS 6.0 install.Be patient with your build and do plenty of research, I'm finding myself re-doing stuff and wasting money. I loved the top but wanted a solid one, for the price of it and you can wait until you have the $$ for it, I'd get one from Pros-Pick.com. These are very nice and come with electrical and stronger lifts,check them out. Good luck and it looks like you have way more skills than I do,sweet truck. L8R ZFLASH
The rear bed sill is 2x4 inches and is made from 16 ga sheet metal. What I do on my trucks is to replace this sill with a length of 0.125 wall rectangular tubing. Since the sill bolts directly to the ends of the frame, this makes the rear of the bed very strong...so much so that you could weld a trailer receiver directly to the bed. This makes a very clean installation and it provides an added level of safety if you are ever hit from behind. I have also been known to add the same dimension rectangular tubing to the rear section of the frame...see pic
