I think the peices you are after can be found if you do a search for " cab 11/12 canvas " and this thread has measurements for windflaps

go to the source
I've had a look at the C8 parts list C8-01 ..... I have a Nov. 43 print .
Page 127 lists Rod , Door curtain - front - right ( Canadian army ) part no. COIQ755434 left Note: When above two parts are used on "After Jobs" they are to be reworked as shown on print 5800060-1 Rod , Door curtain - front - right ( British army ) part No. 5800060 left Support assembly curtain rod upper 5800014 2 required CO1Q would be a Ford part number. Must have been early and late versions of the rods .. confusing isn't it . I had a look at the original side curtains here ..cannot work out how a third rod can fit inside the curtain as the two vertical pockets for the rods are enclosed - sewn together . And , why would the parts book refer to them as Rods ..if they are flat section as Chucks pics show ? BTW The snaps that hold the lower curtain edge to the door top are the same type as the WW2 Jeep HALF DOOR canvas snaps . These are unusual and not easy to find and very expensive

Mike,
The window curtain I got from Brian Asbury does have a horizontal pocket along its top for a "rod" to go through for attaching to the top of each of the two vertical "rods". The ends on all pockets are open so that this can be done. Regards, Jim

Andrew,
Thanks for the reference; I did check it out and although I couldn't find any measurements the pictures and drawing were sufficient to make a set of the windshield frame flaps from scratch. What I need know now is what the flap that goes on the top edge of the door frame looks like. Regards, Jim

That flap isn't mentioned in the parts book.... my cab 11 did have a flap there as found. I believe it was an Aust. army mod as the snaps they used to fix it to the wood were the generic common type..not factory original. I did draw the canvas windscreen post strip..posted it on this forum somewhere ...thanks MAX for the loan ! And , the original curtains I have do not have a horizontal pocket for a third rod ..I wonder why ? Never been one there either ..just the two vertical pockets.

Hi Jim,
Here are some pics of the windshield flaps. These are repops as well. 15 1/2" long, 3 1/2" wide. I had to move some of the "clips" (I don't know the proper term) on the windshield frame as the didn't line up with the holes in the flaps. The "clips" are the same ones used on early jeeps to hook the front of the top canvas to. Beachwood Canvas sells repros, they're about $5 a piece.
