I believe i purchased the side curtain at the Mike C clearing sale up at Castella ?

Hi Mike,

Yes, the Ford and Chev curtains are different where the canvas attaches to the windscreen frame.

Ford uses Lift the Dot type and Chev uses Turn Button type. See attached examples from a Peter Jackson Catalogue.

Have included one of the four drawings of the Ford frame I drew up.

Cheers,
