    What about talladega fiberglass. They make flat top conversions for pete and ftl. Maybe they will make you a raised roof cap. I just come by them and they have a bunch of raised century class caps in the field.

    Who did you talk with at Joplin Peterbilt? Glen?

    Excellent body shop.

    My truck was hit a couple years ago by another driver and thats where I brought it to have all the body work repaired/painted. Definitely pricey but the other drivers insurance paid 4 mine so I can definitely understand from your point not wanting to spend that much...
     
    D.Tibbitt Thanks this.

    Why don’t you just buy one that has a raised roof from the factory ??

    there are plenty for sale on truck paper , and on auction time


    and a few on Craig’s and Facebook marketplace but you have to wade thru hundreds of ads to find them .
