Ian if you go to ---
http://www.rcmoment.com
Type in the search box ---"WPL B-24 1/16 RC Military Truck Part Canvas Truck Hood Cover U3FO"
It is priced at $11.99 which is £8.50 approx.
And unlike everyone else they do ship to the UK
It is a freepost item.
Don't bother going to their UK Warehouse they don't have it.

I don't have access to my Heng Long/WPL B-1Truck at the moment,
Does anyone know if the WPL B-24 "GAZ" truck cargo bed is the same size?
In other words would the Tilt for the B-24 fit the B-1 ?

My wife is currently working on a better more realistic canopy for my own truck. Once finished i will share with you guys to see what you think. Maybe if i am lucky she will make a couple once finessed and i can supply with metal frames aswell.

The canopy for sale look quite neat, but i haven't got my hands on any yet to see what they feel and look like close up

As for the B24 bed fitting the B1, yes it could be made to work, but it is longer than B1. Seems better suited to a M35 6x6 however as i have seen with another WPL truck build
