Hello guy hope everyone is well and patrolling away
Been busy on my side of the world that's why I been quiet but I pop my head in weekly.
Received some parts for the 62 from Datsun land the other day in which I am and have installed
I thought that I would ask my fellow forum members a few questions in reference to some patrol parts
The bezels that I have for the rear tail lights have a rubber insert within the bezel can anyone shed some further light on this please
Also I have the jack but no jack handle can anyone forward some photos of this so I can make or have one made or if anyone has one and would kindly be interested in selling it
I also intend to install the canvas and would like some advise in which is the best way for this to be handled
I look forward to your replies
Fernando

Re: My sixty2 patrol
Hey ferdy - 
This is the only picture I can find right now of the jack handle:
The way I usually install the canvas is to start by laying the canvas inside out on the hood, and start feeding the front edge into the channel on the top of the windshield. Once you've got the front edge done, flip the canvas over the top of the windshield, but don't scratch it out all the way to the rear. Next, feed the bead through the channel over the tops of both doors. You'll have to do a little at a time and go from side to side, doing a little on each side. This is where you begin to see how tight a fit the top is. Once you complete the top of both doors you can stretch the canvas over the rear of the frame. Next do the side curtains, starting with feeding the bead through the channel behind the doors. You'll need to remove the upper bat from the soft top frame to feed it through the loop in the top of the side curtain, same with the lower bar. Once the side curtains are finished you should fasten all the lift dots along the lower edge to the studs on the tub. All that's left now is fasten all the ties and straps inside and install the rear flap.
Are you talking about the chrome ring for the rear tail lights? There is rubber inside the ring, I think it's there to help retain the glass tail light lense.
