Hi all ..... I've just got myself a 67 109 series 2a.
Am desperately trying to find a 3/4 canvas canopy & frame (or just frame & I'll have canvas made locally)!
Anyone out there able to help ?
Also have good condition full fiberglass canopy I'd like to sell or swap.
At the moment I'm in Adelaide area (just out of gawler), but moving up to northern nsw in month or so.
If anyone one can help on either front would be brilliantly appreciated !
Cheers, matthew.

Patience will reward.
Hoodsticks come up from time to time. Keep an eye on ebay.
Red Rocket does new canvas canopies. They're well made too.

Pop the hard top back on and take it to your new location and as Mick said
then keep an eye on the markets section here, ebay or if you want good quality relatively quickly contact Red Rocket on here.

Alternitively new hoodstick sets are available in UK via Exmoor trim and others, as are canvas' of all types colours etc..

Good luck! Enjoy your series.

Is it a military one? I have 68 GS 2a,keep the hardtop on until you have gathered ALL the hood bows and door top fittings,and the Rope Rail (goes across the top of windscreen) thenI would contact Redrocket, enjoy your new vehicle.

Red Rocket is/was his user name within this site, I also believe that he has just changed his user name, as Red Rocket has something to do with his daughter's ???website or something, somebody will know I'm sure of that, cheers Dennis:angel:
