Hello all...
I've acquired one on the largest pieces of canvas I've ever seen. I'd like to put it to use by turning it into a canvas cover for the bed of my WC52.
Does anyone have the proper dimensions handy or know where I can look to find them? I didn't see them in the manuals and my searches here turned up empty.
My best guess is that it should be something close to 10'x16'...or 12'x18'. I'd like to be a little more exact- you know the old saying "measure twice and cut once!"
Also, while we are at it, does anyone know where I can get the hardware to attach the driver's compartment canvas to the windshield? I might make that section, too.
Thanks!

Here is one link for some hardware. Not positive they have the matte black:Themoose74 wrote:Hello all...

One can also likely get them from Beachwood Canvas. Not sure:
