The guy I bought my new truck from told me there was a company "Down South" that was selling these. I guess down south could mean anywhere south of Edinburgh... Confused

Anyone heard of this?

Hi

I was told that someone sold fibreglass cabs, and sold them on ebay, apparently quite cheap too, was one of the reasons I bought my mog was to stick a fibre glass one on.

But since I bought the mog, I've been looking on ebay and trawling the whole net, only to find some place in africa that sells them.....


So I suppose that is down south Laughing

TBH the body of a 404 is basically flat tin work or box section, most of it can be replaced easily.

Odd timing.....last week I bumped into a guy that new a guy, that worked on a mog for a guy.......same old story...but said he had a fiberglass top made for his Mog in Beaulieu. Went through all the old posts today and stumbled on this thread

Since Beaulieu isnt far from me (and yes it is well south) I am looking into it...will keep you posted

Just (this week) bought a fibreglass hard top for the mog. Been searching ebay for months and just had to buy a whole cab to get the hard top off. Strangly the front end of the cab is fibrglass with the rear end being tin.

I've not looking into that much so don't know if the fibreglass is repaired sections or not.
