Willanthry Chev Blitz C60L Restoration

[Willanthry]

I received the word from the people i bought my Blitz from that the canopy frame that belonged to the Blitz had been transformed into...a bird cage! Thus, in the interests of keeping the Blitz as original as possible, i acquired the canopy. The catch, of course, was that it was in the condition that you can see in the photo below. After a day's work and much cursing, my dad and i freed the canopy, and we've got it home.

Also, i'm posting a couple of pictures of the extra spare tyre carrier on my Blitz for a member of this site named Peter.

Does anyone on the site know which way around the canopy goes on the tray, out of curiosity?

You may get some clues off this frame with the rear door still attached.

Ah, those are great photos! I thought that the end with the dog-legged poles must go to the rear, but i wanted to be sure.

Hey Graeme, does the frame in your pic have a home as I am in the market for a frame on my F60L.

Thanks Max, I'll have Keith drop through from Temora as he has the Rusty 6x4 trailer in tow and could just sit it on top. Ha Ha.

"As if!"

But it would make a funny sight.
