spoke to steve at woodies he was a great help. but the only thing i need to know now it how to create the cab back ?????

Nobody makes them in 'glass any more, AFAIK. Steel ones do occasionally come up on ebay, at varying prices/standards.

If anyone has a mint cab back and are prepared to lend it to us, I'm willing to have a mould made.

Only a fibreglass one that's mint

Out of interest, what panels ARE available these days in fibreglass???

It's on a car at the mo, Jonathon, so presumably no use where it is. Plan is to swap it for a steel one soon, but I'm waiting for my welder to repair that, then it's all yours.

Hi
I have now got a solid traveller less the wood ...well its a cab and floor pan (still rolling) whats my next move

where do i put this strengthening frame that has been recommended any diagram would be gratefully appreciated...also any idea as to the best way of filling in the passenger compartment back...

i had asked if the genuine pick up back would fit but was told that needed to mate to 4dr pillars..

i fancy using aluminium tread plate for the flat bed

thanks

I just happen to have several steel pick-up cab backs for sale, if you fancy one. They too are meant to fit to the 4 door pillar, but maybe worth a go?

If you look earlier in the posting you will see that SR who built one got his advice from Steve Foreman of Woodies, so I would have thought that that was the best place to start.
