Hi All,
I am restoring a 61 Series 2 LWB Ute.
I noticed a canvas canopy (ex-military) on Ebay.
Seller says that it is from a Series 3 - and "all the bits are included".
Would it fit my Series 2?
As always - any advice is greatly appreciated!
Regards,
The Grey Ghost

I'd imagine it should fit since the trays and hard tops are almost, if not exactly the same.

However unless you can pick it up (if it's the one I saw) then don't bother, the guy won't freight it even if you were willing to pay the costs associated with that. Don't worry, I tried to convince him but he won't have it.

"will not freight so don't even bother asking" - way to reduce potential interest from other places.

Grey Ghost,
You buy it, you pay for it, I'll pick it up from Fairfeild (That is where it is, right?) then you can make freight arrangements.
regards
Mick

Thanks Guys,
I believe that it's in Fairfield Victoria - lucky for me it's basically on my way home on my daily commute...
Obviously it depends on condition - but what do people think it's worth?
Thanks,
The Grey Ghost!

I paid $120 for the canvas only on ebay, and I thought I got a bargain. I reckon you could double that if the poles are included, and still think you were well ahead.
