dhjmd 'Bolter D Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 140 Morton, IL	Looking to see if anyone has any ideas for a high end indoor only truck cover for the 47-54 COEs? Building myself a pageant queen and would like to protect the investment. Will be indoors at all times. Thought about the DUSTOP for a standard pickup but will have to check the dimensions a little closer to see if it would work (I think it would be too short, height-wise). Only really care about the cab, hood, fenders and steps. Thx, Derek Attachments 68369932-8D82-4B06-8AA5-BA867569E70C.jpeg (305.92 KB, 206 downloads) https://www.stovebolt.com/gallery/greving_derek_1951.html
