Fancy “New” Truck Cap

Moving far away soon & so I purchased this relic to keep the things that the moving company won’t move nice and dry. It’s got a bit of rotten wood but easily fixable. Not bad for $50.

Re: Fancy “New” Truck Cap

So that has a wood frame, ey? That must be about the right age. I'm used to seeing that style be made with an aluminum frame. Looks like a quality brand

Looks good. I'd have grabbed that for fifty bucks all day long. Get ready. Moving sucks.

Re: Fancy “New” Truck Cap

Last time I moved 27 years ago it took 2 years to move . When we got married we both had houses full of stuff and nobody wanted o come take my stuff . I donated furniture and appliances a truckload at a time with a small Mazda truck . I still have stuff boxed up from that move , guess I didnt need it either .

Re: Fancy “New” Truck Cap

I paid $80 for mine last year. It was off an '80s Chevy, so fit perfect and it's all aluminum. Very very light.
