Pro’s Pick’s Aluminum Tonneau Covers
Pro’s Pick has had great success over the years with their Hard Top Aluminum Tonneau Covers. With many design improvements and subtle changes, the most current version of this product is sure to give truck enthusiasts all the benefits they expect from a quality tonneau cover. Most people start their search for a tonneau for practical reasons, like protecting all of their gear or nice wood bed floor from the elements, or perhaps keeping their possessions secure and out of reach while being away from their truck.
The Pro’s Pick Hard Top Cover checks all those boxes. Its front and side drip trays collect water and direct it out through the bedside pocket. Its electric lift actuators keep the cover from being opened while in the closed position and make opening and closing a breeze with the use of a simple switch.
Pro’s Pick’s tonneau cover takes care of all those practical needs while at the same time offering a finished look that nothing else compares to. Fitting nicely in-between the bedsides instead of on top it offers a nice flush finish; the smooth aluminum skin supported by a tube frame means there is no drooping or flapping.
Another huge benefit to the Pro’s Pick cover is that it can be installed into a truck that has already been painted. All components are aluminum, stainless, and other rust-free materials. Pro’s Pick also offers other parts for your classic truck like bumper brackets, truck beds, SS bed floor strips, and more!

The TrackLine Shock kits are designed to update OEM shocks to fully adjustable shock absorbers. Adjustable Aldan shocks are designed to create a more consistent, smoother ride for your classic truck.

Classic Instruments Direct Fit Gauges For 1973-1979 Ford Truck Package

The package will be available in black and white and fits ’78-79 Ford Broncos and ’75-91 Ford Econoline vans. This all-electric cluster features a speedometer, fuel, oil, temperature, and volt gauges. It has green turn signal indicators, a blue high beam indicator, and two red warning lights. Classic Instruments’ Hybrid LED Lighting offers the feel of the original perimeter lighting and the visual benefits of backlighting: even illumination and clear nighttime readability. The cluster also has a built-in dimmer and separate power (12V) and ground leads in the wire harness for the warning lights. The cluster is wired with a single snap-in wire harness on the back of the cluster. Mounting hardware is included to install with the original bezel and lens and setup is a breeze with push-button speedometer calibration. The fuel gauge is programmable for any ohm range with a selector switch on the back of the cluster, meaning the fuel gauge will work with the stock sending unit, any other factory sending units, or any Classic Instruments fuel sending unit. All other necessary sending units are included with a Classic Instruments Ford no fuel sending unit kit (PN SNFDNF). Save space with Classic Instruments’ Zeus Speedometer Technology built-in, meaning the cluster requires no external control boxes and works directly with ECM or VSS signals and it has a built-in ECM signal filter switch.

Bolt-on C4 Corvette IRS Kits and Custom Task Force Crew Cabs
Bolt-On C4 Corvette Independent Rear Suspension Kits
It’s a proven fact that independent rear suspensions provide superior ride and handling capabilities that are not available with solid axle–style suspensions. That is why most modern late-model cars and SUVs come equipped with independent suspension systems. Used C4 Corvette rear suspensions are readily available and very cost-effective in most parts of the country. The excellent design of the Corvette rear suspension allows you to take advantage of the unmatched cornering, handling, and ride quality that it affords. If you drive your classic truck and demand quality components that are designed for enjoyable fun miles this is the setup for you.
Flat Out Engineering offers several kits to install ’84-96 Corvette rear suspension in most early Ford and Chevy pickups and panels, many of which are designed to be completely bolt-on, with no welding or cutting of the frame required. These kits are designed to be easy to install for the average DIY home enthusiast. The kit pictured is for ’55-59 Chevy and GMC pickups and panels. Similar kits are available for Ford F-100s and several other classic truck and street rod applications.

Reproduction Crew Cabs For Chevrolet Task Force
Throughout the ’50s, custom body companies would buy truck cabs from General Motors and create their own spin on three- and four-door commercial trucks. These trucks are primarily purchased by logging companies, the railroad, and other utility companies. They were used … and ultimately used up. Today they are extremely hard to find in good condition. With that said, Quality Classic Parts has been reproducing these Chevy Task Force–era Crew Cabs with four brand-new doors and brand-new door hinges. They have developed a “fin de pillar” as they believe GM would’ve if they actually produced a Crew Cab themselves.
For more information, including pricing, availability, and model options, contact Quality Classic Parts by calling (805) 896-1548 or email infoforqcp@gmail.com.
