130 HCPU tonneau OR canopy and/or frame

[Epsom]

Just asking again if anyone has any of the above items for sale? I have the front factory hoop, but not the mid and back ones, nor the sticks and canopy. Am now open as well to having a tonneau cover with bow/s. Or if anyone knows of a good trimmer say Blue Mtns or Mudgee Rylstone way who is versed in such things, that would be appreciated. Can you help? cheers.

if you want real quality i would go exmoor trim through john craddocks and buy a mohair one they should be able to get you what you want no dramas

Once my new 130 arrives, i will be getting rid of the awfull factory canvas, for a Exmoor trim one, so that will be spare, if you need sticks etc, you could always get them sent in the same package...

juddy i looked at the new landy but the engine is all foreign, plus they only had two on the forecourt a 110 dc ute and a 2 seater 110 two door .....now that is a bit pointless don't you think?
I am waiting for the chaps who are fabricating my tub top to get back to me grrrr!!!
gonna be sweet when its done just wish they would ring me up the buggers!
I put some wipac lights on all round yesterday they are brighter than the 1949spec ones that come standard on landies and only 132 quid the set with postage (standard bulbs) from simmonites regards andy

Thanks Juddy - sorry, I'm not clear on that, what is it that you will be selling when your new car arrives? How much would you ask and when will that be please? The canopy frame and sticks seem very hard to come by and expensive, which is why I have been thinking of going tonneau instead. cheers E.

[juddy]

Yes the sticks and frame are expensive, and it may well be worth you getting some one to make a set up, my current frame is made of 10mm steel tube, slots into the front and rear tub holes, with a non LR canvas, what i dont want is the Brand new one i will be getting so i will have a spare canopy. As iam purcahsing a Exmore Trim Hood.

I think our dealer here and 3 in when i ordered, a 110 SC 110 DC and a 130 SC, there was no chance of viewing a 130 HCPU as non of the Oz dealers had ordered any for there show rooms. But i suppose they have to get in what they think can sell, and it would be a huge expence to get all the range in...

Your tub top is this a box???

sorry that makes no sense .....it is a tub top with sides that have been bent with a 50mm drop a flat ali chequerplate cover in effect with a wheel carrier on top towards the cab end to lower the strain on the struts, it can be lifted off with a couple of guys and the method of hinge is like that of a holden i guess. it has support from a ladder frame chassis underneath and has two locks which are actually within the body of the frame for security should look good me thinks.

I just bought a new take off set of hoops and the newer type canvas/hood/tilt from Stuart @ Foleys Specialist Vehicles for 250gbp. Plan is to install before exporting it. Shipping cost to OZ would probably be beastly.
