ABSTRACT:
A truck having a cab and a camper body installed on its horizontal bed includes aligned openings in the rear wall of the truck cab and the forward wall of the camper body in order to permit passengers to pass freely therebetween. The openings are closable by slidable doors which are laterally movable in opposite directions by roller and track support members. A removable top panel on the truck cab roof and overhang floor of the camper body facilitates vertical clearance for passengers going through the openings. Also facilitating movement through the opening is a pivot arrangement whereby the center portion of the truck seat may be tilted forward into the cab and out of the opening. A flexible quilted boot filled with insulative material and having fasteners thereon is moldable over the perimeter of the openings and securable to fasteners on the forward and rear walls so as to seal against the entry of air, dirt, and other contaminants.
