Pickup Cover...

**WILMASBOYL78** · #1 10-15-2020, 12:57 PM

Looking for a new cover for my 85 GMC Sierra...the old one is shot.

We store the truck for the winter in an unheated building...just installed new General tires and did a little refresh on the American wheels. Bought this ride new 36 years ago this month.

I got my cover for my 1977 GMC from carcovers.com
. Don't know if they will have 1 that works with the topper though. I bought my short box in Nov/78 BTW, 2 wd sport truck 454 .

Nice! Depending on which plant it was built in (and what shift) my guys may have put the front fenders on that one.

That's sweet, too.

I had an '80 stepper I ordered and bought new, although mine was a straight six three on the tree.

Nov14/1978 . Stripes were off of it in about 2 weeks after I got it.

Great Idea, probably would work. The cover I got from carcovers.com is a nice thick cover, only thing I wasn’t to happy about is the mirror pockets were very big, for camper type mirrors. I phoned them and apparently they have options but you have to custom order the cover instead of it being a in stock item.

I can see why you took the stripes off that. I dont recall factory striping like that.

Called them and this is the cover they recommended...sounds good.

That may be a factory stripe package ...
