Thanks Max, I'll have Keith drop through from Temora as he has the Rusty 6x4 trailer in tow and could just sit it on top. Ha Ha.

Well, today myself and my father attempted to put the canopy frame back in place on the back of the truck. Unfortunately for us, it turned out to be too heavy, too awkward and too big for us and our poor old Deutz-Fahr tractor to handle. We've wrestled onto the back of the truck, sitting athwart the tray, and once we get some more hands out to help, we should be able to put the canopy into it's slots.

In the meantime, i was wondering if any of you have photos of your Blitz seats in a complete state? i just needed some guidance, as the photos in the manual aren't as all encompassing as i could wish, and i'm going to attempt to run up the covers tomorrow.

Cheers!

Here is the link to some detail photos of the seat on my web page http://www.canadianmilitarypattern.c...tingPage2.html click on the links right at the top of the page. I'll try and find some more and post them.

Cheers Phil

I get my seat canvas from the people who make blinds and awnings, turn it over so the stripe is on the inside. Pay about $20 for offcut 2x5 mtrs. plenty available in Orange.

With our faithful old Deutz-Fahr tractor, we've managed to put the canopy back onto the back of the Blitz. It didn't want to go, and after a few bent posts and some frustration, the canopy is back on the Blitz, after about 50 years of separation!

Default As the kids say:

"As if!"

But it would make a funny sight.
