ABSTRACT:
A cover with novel hold down means is provided for a vehicle having an open bed, such as a pickup truck, for covering and enclosing the vehicle bed. The cover is constructed of a rigid or semirigid material and is hinged to one sidewall of the vehicle bed so that the cover can pivot upwardly from the other sidewall of the vehicle bed to permit access into the interior of the bed. In addition the novel hold down means comprises an elongated member which threadably engages a V-shaped member and both of which are inserted into a stake hole on the vehicle bed. Rotation of the member moves the V-shaped member upwardly to clampingly engage the interior of the vehicle sidewall.
