    Looking to get a tarpaulin type cover for a grampus wagon, where do other people get wagon covers from?

    Possibly a stupid question but are they canvas? A friend of mine who does military vehicles got some custom canvas hoods made up for a few of his trucks near Bristol, I could try and find out if it helps?

    Don't mind what material, just trying to get a feel for quotes. Rubberised material probably better for ease of maintenance.

    Commercial vehicles need new ones frequently, may be suitable.
    There is / was a small shop in Malton N Yorks that advertised that it made new wagon sheets.
    Don't know the name but it was in the Market place in Malton.
