    A100 Pickup Bed Cover ? Empty A100 Pickup Bed Cover ?

    Post by Guest Tue Mar 24, 2015 11:59 am

    I'm looking for a bed cover for my A100 PU, preferably a hard shell one. Any sources for something like that?

    If I don't find one I'll make my own, mulitiple sections that bolt together. Will be easier to mold the glass, and easier storage.

    If I decide to make one for myself, I'll make it in 18-inch sections. The front/rear section would be rounded along the long side for a "pleasing appearance". That way, an A100 would use a front section, a rear section, and two intermediate sections. And an A108 would use 5 sections total. On the rear section, I could add a third brake light or backup lights.

    Also thinking about making a fiberglass molded headliner for A100/A108s

    Thanks much

    - Bill

    I also would be interested in finding a hard cover for my A100 pickup.

    Its an odd shape. There's a guy who was making fiberglass ones up in Canada. I'm not sure if he is still making them. Partied a lot with him at the Mopar show at Carlisle. Let me dig around here I might have his contact info. He has built quite a few beautiful A100 pickups over the years.

    I found a bed cover for a 2003 Chevy Pickup longbed. It fits perfectly side-side, but it's about 7" too long. Should be able to cut a section out of the middle and paste that back together, should work fine.
