64EK26 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Hi How is a cupola secured on a Bedford MW ? I have seen some post war ones secured by external straps, however all the period war time photos don't show them, so how was it secured in place ?

0 Ex-boy Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I don’t know, but my guess would be a spring (like a curtain spring), sewn into the hem. I’ve seen similar in other applications. Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
