| Does anyone remember the name of the aftermarket cabs that were more like a step up from a canvas heat houser and had glass in front and on the sides. They kind of bolted onto the fenders and had a roof. |

There was one that was Keohn (sp) wasn't much more than a canvas one but had a roof and I think plexiglass windows. Don't know if that is what you are thinking as there were a lot of after market cabs. ------------- 1945 C, 1949 WF and WD, 1981 185, 1982 8030, unknown D14(nonrunner) |

There was the 'Hinson Heat Houser' which was available with a canvas roof. Had a standard one on my D-21 back in the day. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |
