60Patrol

I have found a company who will produce a outdoor vehicle cover for the Patrol. They need an actual Patrol to make the measurements. Do you have a Patrol you could lend for a day. (There will be a benefit to you for your help!)
Thanks,
Keith

How much are they charging?

I live pretty close to Anaheim, about 10 miles away! I could do it

I second River's question... If I don't have to take a second mortgage, I may be interested in getting one too -- Kind of that group buy for a better price theory!

I have an appointment with the car cover people next week Friday for a fitting.

I need to know more about the mirror placement on the different years and measurements. How many different locations? I can see a problem for a business wanting to just make one pattern to fit all, especially since there are only a few of us out there. I have an extra door mirror I can take with me that would be the same size as the fender mirror but I do not know how far from the firewall the mirror sits ?

Please see the bottom do this album to see the measurements of a 1969 Patrol:

They'll never be able to accommodate all the possible mirror placements. I have a couple Patrols with windshield hinge mounted mirrors on both sides, and then there's Togo with the tripod style mirrors that the original owner installed.

The Land Cruiser cover that I get doesn't have mirror pockets on it, most likely for the very same reason.

Keith - cover your mirrors with plastic, or remove them.

I will take it for measurements today the cover company it is close the the Deaver spring co in Santa Ana Ca so I have made arrangements to leave my Patrol with Deaver to get measured for leaf springs etc.

Are these covers available yet?
