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.

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?

cab back sounds good

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.
