I had a hand in this rebuild!!! lol
I have enjoyed reading and ogling the images LOL, just a couple of questions, where did you source the tilt (canvas), what size tyres are you running and what breed are they, nice looking rig, can't wait for mine to be going back together, damn rain, cheers Dennis
ps I'm also on the lookout for the hoop set etc to suit 86" S1, any clues??,,.
Sorry Dennis, I can't give you the only set I have.
They are off the Land Rover I learnt to drive in on the farm , so now I have the bow's, the rear tub, windscreen and the engine block all from that same Land Rover.
The 86" chassis that 'Gromit' didn't need, is the about the correct year for the parts. ---- Can you see what I am getting myself into?
Every now and again, when 'trolling' around the web, I come across photo's of series ones for sale with home made tin tops and they nearly always have used a set of canvas bow's as the frame.
So stripping a home made top down, could be one way to make up a set for yourself.

Hi Dennis,
Toad (the owner) sourced the tilt from the UK. The hoops came from GarryCol. The tyres are, if I recall correctly, either 6.50x16 or 7.00x16 that were imported from, I think, India. I got them through my stepson. 12 ply and they actually are so stiff they broke the machine when we were getting them installed on the rims. Probably wouldn't go down that path again.
