A telescopic cover assembly comprises a fixed cover member fixedly mounted atop the walls of the load bed section of a vehicle, at least one movable cover member, and a track assembly mounted upon the walls and into which each movable cover member is slidably engaged. Each movable cover member comprises a frame member having left and right base members extending on the sides of the movable cover member from its front to its rear, left and right front support members extending upwards from the front of the base members, left and right rear support members extending upwards from the rear of the base members, each of the front and rear support members having substantially the same height, a front roll bar extending from the top of the left front support member to the top of the right front support member, and a rear roll bar extending from the top of the left rear support member to the top of the right rear support member, a top panel member disposed substantially horizontally between the front and rear roll bars, and side panel members disposed substantially vertically between the front and rear support members. The outer surface of the top panel member is depressed inwardly from the outer surface of the front and rear roll bars and the outer surface of each of the side panels is depressed inwardly from the outer surface of the front and rear support members to which it is attached.
