Ron, Ian,

Thanks for your replies regarding the canvas. Indeed, it does sound that both Worthing and Jim Clark have stopped making British canvas items, even though Worthing do still advertise Canadian 15cwt canvas on their website. I seem to remember reading on HMVF that the person doing the British canvas for Jim Clark has retired a few years ago (?)

But, you are right....it's probably best to find a local supplier that can make a canvas specific for my 8cwt when the time comes.
Ian, Is that the Humber 8cwt that was also in Normandy 2014 for the Port-en-Bessin tour? I remember seeing your Ford Staff car and the Humber 8cwt on the assembly area just outisde town.


@Mike. Is your website still around somewhere? I remember you had some good period PU pictures, including the one you posted earlier of the tilt as a stand-alone item.

Alex
