Keith's website is still accessible on the web archive.
These drawings are of the Australian GMH side curtains though. There are some differences between these and the Canadian ones. (mainly the canvas)

I can make some drawings of my frames if no drawings exist of the Canadian versions. Some details seem to be the same though. So these could definitely be used for reference.

I'll post the drawings here for future reference (in case the web archive becomes inaccessible for some reason).

Default Ford CMP side curtains Ford/Chevy differences?

Good Day,

Comparing my drawing of a Ford curtain frame to a Chevy one I noticed a difference in the dimensions.

The Chevy one is shown as 34-1/2" overall length of the frame. On the Ford sample I measured it is only 32". This length seems consistent for a Ford as the top of the door is 34" long and a picture of one fitted on a door taken from inside the door shows the forward part about 2" back from the front of the door.
This concurs with my 32" overall length.

I have included the hole spacing on the frame parts. As previously mentioned I didn't have a lot of time with the frame so even though I worked as accurately as possible I cannot give 100% assurance everything is correct.

If anyone has an original frame from an Australian Ford CMP and could check my dimensions it would be great "peer review".

Cheers,
