Abstract

The cargo space of a vehicle bed bounded by a flatbed, a tailgate, and opposed rear quarter panels is increased by extending two side enclosure members, each encased within a quarter panel, to connect with a rear enclosure member which swings into an upright position from a flat position on the tailgate. The cargo space is divided by a divider located between the vehicle cab and the tailgate.
