Default All very interesting BUT......... for the early C15a...

We still have to address the tubing size and how long the legs of the bows are supposed to be to fit an original tailored cab 11/12 tarp????.....

so far I have learned that the early C15a cab11/12 did NOT have the horizontal bars....... pity as it would make the structure much more sturdy.


There seems to be a small bend in the middle of the bows in effect creating a ridge for the water to run from...... what is the angle???

Were the bows made from pipe or tubing??? and what diameter and wall thickness?????

Are the C15a cab11/12 bows ALL in one piece or can they be made with a joining/union sleeve like shown on the 3 ton trucks.

Cheers

Bob C.
