Hi Bob
In order to move things along a bit I have just had new cab floor plates made from original patterns that were beyond use I have also parted the cab rear frame from panel in order to have a new skin made, it has curved corners plus a joggled edge top and bottom and thought it easier to have this panel made at the same time.
I will get rear cab panel frame blasted then re attach new panel. Regarding rear window I was lucky in that one of the frames was still good this one will be spot welded to the new cab panel I obtained a second frame from Canada and will use this one to hold the glass in, these tend to suffer from the dreaded rot and are hard to replicate.
I am off to my workshop tomorrow and will take some more pics, you don't happen to have any stowage box's of the type I need I will have to start making them soon.
I have also ordered a new rear canvas from Allied Forces here in the UK plus a new wiring loom from OZ will have to do some overtime to pay for it all

Regards RR.
