- My son insists that he saw a two-piece tonneau cover on a late RBB the other day. According to him, the rear of the cover was like a standard top cover, with a full-length zipper that went from side

- Maybe I'm missing something here, but why doesn't he just leave the tonneux on and tuck the front part behind the seats for driving? That's what I do. Then when I park, it's just a matter of pulling

- Hmm I didn't know that they made full tonnoues that didn't zip in the middle. I have one for my '75, it has lift-a-dots that hold it snug behind the seat when you have it half zipped off. -- John Ste

- Dan's right. This is what the OEM tonneau was designed for. In fact, your son could even leave the passenger half of the cockpit covered and just fold the driver's half back behind the seat (for that
