Intresting Cliff,
Note the sun compass mount above the windscreen in the AWM pic, this mount is not uncommon to sunshine cabs.

On your model i'm not sure about the canvas fixing along the front edge as the canvas returns under a metal angle that is held by two wing nuts.

Thanks Euan. The photo you see was the only reference I had to the Sunshine roof at the time so if you could send me photos of the fixings of both Chev and Ford for my reference only I'd appreciate it as I have never seen a real one.
