Default all those Square Roof hatches just sat there

Any chance that the roof hatches are salvagable and are the front window frames rotten.So many UK cabs have suffered from our wet climate and the window frames rot.
Whats the chances you can go into mail order cab parts business from that Hidden location.

Sorry Stephen I was practicing some immersion therapy and had my wife Leeann take the photographs so I did not take too much time examining each truck. I was very conscious of trying to split the trip between my interests and Leeann's. What's that called "keeping the peace?"

I could find out information about the frames and hatches for you from the owner of the yard as the owner is pretty approachable. I did notice that some trucks were missing hatches and a couple that were there were a bit rusty. Let me know what model and parts you are after.

To be honest I am only just coming around to CMPs as I have a MCP truck + a pre- WWII Civilian truck - Leeann was better pointing out the CMPs than I was. I had a photo taken of a truck similar to my Chevrolet Holden and when I looked at the photo there was a CMP in the background and I did not even notice it in the yard at the time. Pretty thick aye!

Thanks for looking at the photos - if I can help you just let me know.

Kind Regards
Lionel
