I have a 58 Fleetside, anyone ever see a tonneau cover installed on one?
I would like to find something flush mount, or low profile, but all the manufacturer websites don't go back anywhere near our old trucks.
I took some measurements, so possibly could e-mail the manufacturers, but I was hoping someone on here could narrow it down.
Thanks
Grant Cook

Check this link. It says they have covers for older and classic trucks.

I have a roll and lock on my 97 F150 step side since 2002.It should work for your truck. I would never go with anything else if the truck could be fitted with one. They are great! http://www.rollnlock.com/

Let me add that the rollnlocks are made for straight beds and mine being a step side the front and rear of the bed are different widths. They make a kit for that. They claimed at the time I bought mine that the top would support 100 lbs. I have plenty on the top of it while loading with no problems. The best feature is that it locks and is secure!

Saw a nice one on a F*%d at a show last year. Set flush with top of tailgate. Fabricated from Aluminum sheet with 1" square aluminum tubing frame under. Edges turned down an inch as well. Vertical tubes at corners resting on bed bottom. Gas shocks for opening assist. Flush mount locks at tailgate. Machine Turned finish with a clear coat applied.
