hooks
There are 14 hooks total , 7 each side attached to the aluminium roof . They serve as anchors to hold up the penthouse tent . Logicaly that tent goes on the left ( passenger ) side where the map table hooks up on the outside wall . Why they would have hooks on the generator compartment side is beyound me , mere restorer .

More hooks
Hooks on the cypher clerk side of the box . A lot of hooks . Originaly they were set with flimsy rivets and all of mine were gone. I went with 1/4” bolts after enlarging slightly the original holes along the roof .I will be using an awning instead of a tent .

Reunited at last .Now that the box has a good roof and good floor it was time to reunite it with the truck . It will be easier to move it in and out of the garage and take less room than when they were seperated .

Need a spare tire to fill that big hole on the side . Next a ladder to climb on the roof , Jerrican holders and tools & chain lockers for the underside . That will be it for this summer , i am flying across Canada again in August . Will try to see my MLU friends along the way . At least those living near an airport . Next winter i will do the interior finishing of the box .Meanwhile i will be checking for more original parts for this restoration . Give me a heads up if you find / have anything you are willing to sell / trade . Cheers for now .

time for a ladder
Fitted nicely the driver compartment doors , anchored the box tightly to the truck frame and built a roof ladder today.
