    A few companies do them now, be aware though that some of the modern fabrics they use rubbish, make sure they are good old canvas.

    Time has come for a spring tickle , so it's out with the old and in with the new.

    Roof Canvas removed ready for replacement. As it's a custom jobbie Im having one made by The Canvas Repair Centre at Burton On Trent, went over and paid them a visit the other day and Im filled with confidence that they will do a good job, will take some pic's of the refit.

    And new roof canvas, rams and a new Reimo style roof bed that works on the uprated rams!The roof canvas came from THE CANVAS REPAIR CENTRE BURTON ON TRENT. they used my old one as a template. The quality and fit were outstanding as was the service. I cannot recommend them highly enough and will do a full review in the correct section.

    How do you get on with the side door step?
    I take it that it does not protrude farther than the wing mirrors.
    My wife and I are finding getting in and out of the back a litte bit of a strain these days.
