Re: Bed Mat and Tonneau cover made for a 1972 C10 LWB?

iam going this struggle with my 87 swb looking for a bed mat but nobody has one a friend thinks he found me one through oreillys but it hasn't came in yet though to verify but that's were he got his for his 72 swb that fits 73-87 swb only thing is it has the cut outs for the fuel tank bumps.. I know they still have the bed mat for the 73-87 8ft long beds maybe you could try one of those maybe as close as you can get for now. or maybe someone else might know

I can't help you with the bed mat, but I have an Extang Blackmax on my 72.

Good luck.

How long have you had the Black Max on your truck? Have you been driving in hard rain, if so how dry does the bed stay? Can you post pic or two of it on your truck so I can see how it fits/looks? I was thing Black Max or Revolution but there is quite price diff between the two.

If it's a fleet side the 73-87 mats fit very good. Around the wheel wells it's not 100% perfect but pretty close. There are also very small cutouts where the 73-87 has a boxed out area for the fuel filler.

I've had it for about a year and it's not parked in the garage. It's experienced a few rains/storms and had no problem with things in the be getting wet. It also fits like a glove and you can reverse the snaps in the winter when the vinyl contracts.

You might check around this weekend for a sale.

Here's a couple photos.

That sucks about Gaylords. I had one on my 1970 CST and it was really nice.

This is the one I bought. Actually found it on this site doing a search. Daily driver, fits great, snow, cold, wind, rain, hail. I've had it about a year and it is holding up nice
