One of the smaller fiberglass ones. Not sure if there is such a thing as a boot anymore for our old trucks? Getting things together to build the 75 a new bed.

You looking for one of the bed level models, or the deluxe with the mini-door?

I would look on CL, or a wrecking yard in an area near a major highway/Interstate.

It must be a southern ish thing? Yes sir, looking for the bed level kind. Mounting it on a flat bed, on the welding truck. Just a good safe place to keep my hoods, gloves, change of clothes etc.. Plus the O2 bottles will be mounted underneath it.
I don't know what a sleeper is unless your talking a camper, but the shell seen on my truck is yours for free if you want it.

Man I appreciate it! Were it not so far away I'd take it and put it on the 82.

Where in the hell did you find those? I've been looking on craigs list for a good while with zero luck. There really isn't a scrap yard around here, I'm aware of, that has anything old.

I read the title and thought he was looking for a "SLEEPER", like @Vbb199 vince's tetnus shot c10 lol. Not a bed cap.
hah my thoughts exactly


Also, as far as the item you're looking for, i've never even seen one of those before. Just full size bed caps.
What is that used for? I get it looks like a sleeper cab on a big rig, but I doubt you could actually fit in there. Is it just storage?

Haha, no I couldn't even get in one now days, 6'5'' 240 pounds and old and fat. Though rode in several, the kind with a back door back when I was alot younger. In this case it is for cleanish storage.

Hard to be a sleeper with open hedders and drag slicks on the back. Lol
