New Tarp

[rboltz]

Anyone make real canvas tarps for the M-101 series? I have one of the current vinal ones and it just does not look right, on the restored trailer, for the period. In the 60's and 70's we had real canvas on our trucks and trailers.

New life canvas is one. I think there's 2 more but can't remember off the top of my head.

other possible source I ran across, have not used them myself

PIZZOFERRATO ENTERPRISES/WEEBEE Webbing

Any sailmaker worth his salt can do that for you.
Probably even recycle a stressed sail into a cover for you.

I have used Pizzoferrato Enterprises/Weebee Webbing before. They are darn good and take pride in their work, and they get the details right. Its real canvas, that smells and feels like real canvas.

You say that as if it's a good thing.

New Life doesn't do 101 series. just 1/4 ton.
