Hi guys,
For the rainy weather I made a Jeep canvas top off my MB to fit on my GPA.
The only thing I had to make were bows,3 more hole in the canvas at the windowscreen and some brackets at the back.
I managed to do this without drilling extra holes in the GPA.
A few small brackets I had to make wich are screwed at the body with the original screws or bolds .
So no damage at the GPA.
Easy to remove and up in a few seconds when it starts to rain.
I tested it today and it works great. :lol:

nicely done Peter. Could we have pictures of the brackets that hold the bows and some measurements.
Thanks in advance

Hi Peter,
it sure looks very good !
I would also be interested in detailed pictures of your system, especially because you are using existing holes .... :lol:
Great !
BTW Did you ever get any further with the plate in the engine-room you were going to reproduce ?
Thanks,
Glenn

I am to busy with other things,Leo s hull etc .
The basic things you neeed is 2x 3 meter 22mm pipe [central heating] pipe bender 22 mm.
4 small pieces thickwall pipe 2x inside 22 mm and 2 x outside 22 mm,some piece off sheetmetal for the brackets and a 1,5 meter piece off rond 6 or 8 mm metal .
And a few hours spare time.
I will take pictures soon with some sizes.
