In my 1989 Chevy Fiesta in the above cab area is 2 mattresses measuring 42 inches x 55 inches. When laid out it comes to 84 inches by 55 inches. I haven`t had any luck finding a mattress cover for this strange size. Any suggestions?
 
If you know how to or know someone who does, you can sew a cover for them. You can either purchase flat sheets (you can still get them at Walmart), or buy quilted fabric at any fabric store (also sold at Walmart) . If you want to make them removal for washing, I would use velcro for fabric. If you want to cover just the top, you can sew elastic in the fabric around the edges, or you can try these http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?SKU=14808086.
 
My wife made ours like a bag that the foam fits in. (we have a sperate foam memory top) One for each piece.Then when laid together it is all fitted.
 
Thanks yizit & g1g. I've never seen the straps before - almost looks like suspenders straps. I'm just wanting to keep the mattresses clean while traveling and you've both given me some ideas. Thanks!
