I have been wanting a cap for my truck for awhile, I have to carry wifes wheelchair and stuff, so want it dry back there.
I have a roll& Lock cover right now but it always get s frozen in the winter and I can't get it open.

Well I found this cap for $100, and just put it on and brought and brought it home, Guy said it came off chevy short bed so I figured I was good.
After getting home and installing the right way I found it is not for my truck at all and even that I got it on there and it seems water tight except the rear door, (I have to tweak it a little) it is a little short.

I am kind of anal about things (shut up CB) and wonder should i resell it and look for something else that fits or does this one look ok??

Appearance wise I don't see anyting wrong with it. Looks better than most I see on the road.

What makes you think it's NOT for a Chevy?

I agree with everyone that it looks good, and unless I was told it did not fit quite right, I would never know. For $100 bucks, you got a steal.

MJ how does it fit on the box near the cab? You can get a piece of rubber to help seal the bottom of the door to the tailgate. You did good! $100 is a deal. Billy Mac :beer:

The door has a hard time closing because one I have to let out one side a bit, and it need to come back 1/4 inch, but then it won't be sealed up buy the cab.
CB said the same Mac to put piece of dimond plate or something like that up front.

Monkey man, I agree it does look like a ford cap??

I washed and waxed the teruck and cap today, I will post a pic shortly

I'd sell it to someone whose truck it would fit for $150, then go find the right size one....just my thoughts though....:)D
