I'm looking at a camper shell on Craigslist, the guy says it came off of a late 80s S10. The measurements he gave me was 61.5"x76". The measurements I'm finding on my Taco are 60.5"x76".

It seems damn close. The problem I'm running into is that if it will fit right, I absolutely want to buy it, and I want to send a deposit today to hold it. But I won't be where the camper is located for another week, so I can't try it out on my truck before making an offer.

He also said he thought it was a "universal" small-truck camper. Is there such a thing? It certainly looks far newer than you'd expect for a 80's-era camper.

What do you guys think? If it is 1" wider than the truck bed, how noticeable would that be to have a 1/2" sticking out over the edges?
