Aluminum Tonneau Cover | 1973-79 Ford Styleside Short Bed

$3,124.00

FANTOM aluminum flush-mount tonneau cover for 1973–79 Ford Styleside short beds, built to order with electric lift or gas shock options, all install parts included.

  • The bed rail stays bare - flush mounting keeps the dentside profile instead of adding a frame across the top.
  • Water engineered out - integrated gutters in the aluminum rail system carry rain to the corners and away.
  • Three ways to open it - key fob electric; plain electric; or gas shocks with nothing to wire.
  • Built to your bed - a dimension sheet per truck because a fifty year old Styleside is not a drawing.
  • Your paint; your truck - bare aluminum arrives ready for prep so the lid disappears into the colour.
  • Takes it back off - removable when the bed needs to be a bed again.

Install Level: Advanced

Built to order with a 4–8 week lead time.
A dimension sheet is required before the cover is built. Some trimming may be needed.
Ships in bare aluminum. Prep and paint are required.
Freight is calculated separately and not included in the price.
Styleside short bed only.

FANTOM Tonneau Cover by Pro’s Pick – The ULTIMATE Tonneau Cover. Crafted with the same premium quality and sleek, flush-mount design that customers love, the FANTOM sets a new standard in tonneau covers. It sits perfectly between the bedsides, ensuring nothing rests on top of the bed rails. Featuring a redesigned aluminum rail system with integrated water management and an upgraded hinge system, the FANTOM offers enhanced durability and strength. Installation is a breeze, and the cover can be easily removed if needed. Now available for select models with gas shocks, and the upgraded electric lift option includes a convenient key fob remote system. Each cover is custom-made to ensure optimal fitment for your specific truck. Proudly made in North America, the FANTOM is a testament to quality and craftsmanship.

Because we strive to provide the best fit possible, this product is built to order. Expect 4-8 week lead times.

All parts necessary to install are provided. Some tools required. Comes in bare aluminum and requires prep and paint.

Any spray-liner or bed-liner may affect installation.

Please note: due to inconsistencies in dimensions from truck beds of this vintage, we require a dimension sheet to be filled out to ensure optimum fitment. Some modification or trimming may be required.
