great pics. It looks the whole crossmember canvas support is held together on both ends with a piece of flat iron and bolted into place in existing holes already there. Can you help me with the rise of the cross member in the center? The window pic also reveals how the canvas front retaining clip actually clips over a small tit on the top of the cab. I wonder how complicated this cover actually is? Surely there must an orginal??? Cheer for now and thanks again. Rob

starting to look like a narly FAT. Tony did a quick canvas strip around the cab and body just to keep us semi weather proof. Missing a couple of Lee Enfield rifle clips mounted inside the Fat body on top of the cupboard marked NO. 2... Slightly larger clips than the No 1 clip, has this difference in clip size been talked about on this forum??? Tony does all of the work... Cheers Rob

Down at my pond this afternoon. The FAT is up and running nicely, just fitted the canvas top body piece. Still have a lot of questions concerning the back canvas bag that held the camo net. Looking for 2 1/8 inch footman loops? Cheers Rob

Hi Rob,
You and Tony must be ready for a winter holiday after all that grass cutting and restoration work this summer! What's next on the restoration list? Maybe a 3 ton cargo? Are you finished at the golf course for the season? Come on by and I'll buy breakfast! Regards,Derk.
