    Please put up more videos. I restored my 68’ Smith Built topper for my 71’ F100 last summer. It was a bigger project than I expected. They are held together with long staples that all attach from the outside under the skin. I am interested to see how you handle some of the problems I had, and I also would like to see how you attach the back door. The hangers and locks are not the best system and they break when you climb in and out. Good luck!

      Thanks for watching! My wife and I have to finish editing the full rebuild video. It is coming. Hopefully sooner than later. Are you a part of Bump Nation on Facebook? I’d like to see your truck and topper.

      Thanks for watching and for your interest! My rebuild is done. The video of it is and has been in the process for a while now. I will get with my editor and see if she’s ready to put some time back into our channel… I’m excited for your build! What’s your topper going to be mounted on?
