Gents,
I have most of you down for your 15cwt tarps, and we will move to production soon. If anybody is on the fence, and wondering about a canvas cover for your 15cwt truck, it is time to decide. PM me with your needs, and don't be the only one without a tarp. Stewart |

Gents,
The canvas cover production is stalled with our fabric at some factory in the US getting treated. The canvasmith thinks that it will be 2 weeks before the paperwork can get the green stuff back into Canada so that the production can start. I will let you know when they get sewn. If you want to think about how you will ship your tarp, now would be a good time to arrange transport for it. If you have not paid, now would also be a good time to raid the piggy bank. Remember that the tax man loves CMPs also, so add 13% to your Canadian funds. To all those who have paid - thanks, and I will process yours first. Regards, Stewart |

Could you give the approx overall dimensions of the tarp you are duscussing. From the photo I'm wondering if it would fit my F8 long box? Much smaller truck but doesn't look too different from the remains that I have. |

In response to your, and other fellows questions regarding the 15cwt box dimensions, I went out to the garage this morning with my tape measure. The box is 80 inches - front to back. It is 82 inches wide. Both measures are outside to outside. The bows will have the tarp rise about 33 inches above the top of the box. Is that about the same size as the 8cwt? If you can use a tarp of this size, please let me know so I can get the canvasmaker up to speed - we expect material to get back into Canada soon. Then production can start. Stewart |

I'll measure my box as soon as I get out to the cottage - maybe Tues or Wed. David |

David, according to Military Vehicle Profiles, your outside measurements are 84 1/2 long and 83 3/32 wide and judging from the pics it would be 30 inches from the top of the box to the top of the bows.
