Finally got bed cover done.Used dupli-color bed liner spay paint.Turned out ok and hides lot of imperfections.The piece that fits behind window no longer fits correctly,apparently shrunk from sitting in sun for 2 years!Crappy design,water collects and stays on bottom of rear window=rust city.Thinking custom tool box to fill space.Thanks everyone for guidence and comments during this process.Time to enjoy my labor and drive as designed(truckish) till block splits in half...John
the black looks great. goes good with the car. but if your whole ranchero was purple thats a whole nuther story.
John there was on friday a 74 ranchero with a nice factory center door trim in the Merced Pick-n-Pull yard....ifin you are still lookin fer one
Thanks Carl,i shorten one off LTD door,but would like to find correct piece.See these covers ocassionaly at yards HR.They want around 80.00 ranchero $$$$!Maybe next time i have a chero going GA.i can send ya one.
She looks Sweet! Kim's already has the rails to mount a cover on the back but I have no idea where to digg one up.
Thanks Ray.That was DIY bed cover according to PO,plywood with padded fabric on top.Maybe flip angle and have custom tonnue made with snaps on angle inside bed.Any progress on 71?
