Ouch my poor memory...
Hi Phil
I just went through most of my pictures ..... and I have thousands..... but still short a few as I never took photos of the inside roof..... always need more photos.
So from memory on my cab 11 I have a spot welded rib that runs from left to right across the cab roof...... no hatch remember.
On the cab 12 the rib runs from to back almost over the driver's side..... and a small 5 to 6 inch rib runs front to back near the front of the rectangular hatch.....
.... I think.... will need to look again at the barn....
My roof pad was a molded black rubber foam...... smooth rubber finish... no canvas cover and glued with some real glue to last 70 years....
I am using an old CMP seat bottom.... looks good when you look at it.... springs are too soft and my butt tooooo heavy....driving in the field the seat springs bottom out and man that steel pan is hard.... I am seriously considering carving out a seat cushion built up of a variety of foam blocks with different progressive density .... hate loosing my expensive teeth fillings.
I will have eye bolts for quick release seat belts so they can be removed for shows...... and used for playing cowboys.
How is the HUP coming along..?
Bob
