F60s cmp laat canvas
Dear friends,
Can any one kindly tell me where I may be able to purchase a new tilt canvas for my Ford LAAT? I live in the United Kingdom. The two military canvas company’s I have come across only work on American Vehicles. Any helpful advise would be very much appreciated. Keep safe Kind regards, Mark Towers Last edited by Mark Towers; 31-03-21 at 17:55.

Hi Andy,
Thank you very much for pointing me in a positive direction. I will email now and kindly mention that you have put me in touch. I will report back with an update soon. The canvas that came with my LAAT 8 years ago is well and truly beyond repair now ... hopefully Richard Hughes can help. Kind regards Mark

Mark,
I am sure the question for LAAT canvas has come up on the forum before....maybe 2 years ago or so. Was it James Gosling maybe? It could be worth partnering up. regards, Alex

LAAT canvas tops
Hello Mark,
James was indeed looking for a LAAT canvas, but this was back in 2014. He later reported Jim Clark of Allied Forces had planned to do a limited run of LAAT canvas tops, but I do not know if this ever came to fruition as James sold both of his LAATs in 2015. I am sure there is a (latent) demand for this, and it must help tremendously if you have an existing one to use as a pattern.
