Hi I'm a new boy just bought a 1971 series 2a. Based near chippenham
A little bit of a project and will be asking for some good advice I'm sure.
I need a new canvas and stick set for starters. Who do people use or not use?

I'm afraid I haven't.

That's mine so it's something I've never looked into....

Real nice, hopeful to get mine to a decent standard.

Interesting stripe

Are you going full soft top or truck cab and tilt?

Shake rattle n roll. · Jul 26, 2020

Lol, re stripe. Going to go full canvas I think.

Hi Bud,

I got my Bikini from them it has been good so far, the last full tilt I got is an exmoor trim end of year sale tilt ( so was only £220 ) and that has been sat in the spare room for a year so I do not know about how that fits.

I know a few people who have got Undercover Covers full tilts for their 90's recently and are happy with them, however they seem to be using the name Comptons 2000 now.

Cheers

Mine was splayed in the back garden so you should get somewhere close if not better

Ok, I've ordered the hood and a few sticks that were missing from AWT, these guys were super helpful although sounded like a small company on the phone.
Bench seats from Ebay, they came in a Britpart box, new front seats from Lr parts in Liverpool.
Thanks for the help guys!

Knappster · Aug 2, 2020

Hi and welcome!

Nice Landy too.,

Quick up date, hood n sticks on. As said the hood came from AWT in Whitney. They were really helpful. My question is I can see three tiny holes in parts of the hood, looks like a missed needle holes during manufacturing. Should I complain or am I being over the top?
