Given to me yesterday, sold at the dealer mounted on the truck in 84 and taken off last week. Has screened windows. Just not sure it's found its forever home on the 1028 vs a s250 shelter. Need some opinions please.

I threw it on because it was free. Want to go with an s250 shelter and convert to a camper. Just wondering what your thoughts are

I like it. I've seen several different types of shells come out of GL over the years on CUCVs. Both the steel toppers I have are GL or DLA surplus. Do you plan to keep the S250 on the truck all the time? If not, these glass toppers are easy on and off and having an enclosed bed can be pretty handy.

I've caught hell all day long for having this thing on my truck. Everyone keeps telling me the s250 would look better

Well, necessity is the mother of invention. I guess that's why all the CUCVs that were released with shells on them had them. The men and women utilizing them saw an operational need. That's why I asked what your need was.
Function preceeds form.

As much as your truck looks like a regular civilian truck, I would leave it.
Just paint it.

It looks fine and free is always good

I love it! Personally I would paint to match. But I like making my cucv’s pretty :) I was looking to put one on just like it. And an s250
