Getting quite close to finishing this one, drilled out and painted the eyelets for the canvas, just need to find a suitable rope for the ties.

Cheers Dave, that's probably what I'll try,I have some already, and some thicker elasticated sowing thread,sure one of them will do.

Think this is about the best I can do with the ties and my limited skills!

I've a few bits to stick on, lights,wipers ,winch cable etc, some more weathering and matt coat the canvas because I forgot before I fitted it!
Next post on this should hopefully be in the completed section :smiling:
