Larry, Al, Trevor, Brandon, Neil and others:



Thanks for all the replies on and off-list about the

latches.  I ordered them directly from Spaenaur and it

was $50 for both sides and a few extra strikers ($50US

was their minimum order). ZAC wants $370 for the pair

of assemblies.  



Also, thanks for the lively discussion last week (or

the week before) on towbar attachments.  I made one

last weekend with my little mill/lathe.  It was a fun

project and I think it will work well.  It gave me

something to do while my crankshaft is away.

Scott, the way I made a tow bar attachement was to drill holes in the ends of the front axel and thread them. Then I used a 10 mm barrel insert and bolted it on each end and redrilled the carter pin hole. Works great, looks good. Best regards, Bill

Malcolm:



I plan to weld it to the frame.  Some modification to

the latch is required also from what I understand.

 On point that is not clear from the manual, is the

 lock welded to the

 canopy frame?  If not how is it fixed.
