A cap for the cargo bed of a pickup truck has a rigid internal frame with spaced front and rear frame members connected by longitudinally extending upper side rails and longitudinally extending bottom plates, said frame being supported on side walls of the pickup truck. A lightweight shell extends over the rigid frame and is supported on the side walls of the truck. A plurality of posts are attached to the side rails and extend vertically through holes formed in the shell and have one or more storage racks attached to the posts whereby all of the weight of the storage racks and cargo supported thereon is transmitted through the internal frame and supported by the truck body. The frame members are formed of T-slotted members providing support for sundry items inside the shell.
