That new canvas smell!
This past year for Christmas my parents were really good to me and I got new canvas for my M38A1. This past week I recovered my seats and they turned out very nice!

Re: That new canvas smell!
Thank you! I will post pics of my top as soon as its done shrinking. I had to stretch the back and shrink the front just past the first top bow.

Re: That new canvas smell!
What are you doing to stretch and shrink the canvas?

The guy at Surplus City said to stretch it. Sit it out in the sun. To shrink it, get it soaking wet and then let it dry.

Surplus City Jeep Parts. They have a great price on their canvas! Seats were $92 per seat. $325 for their winter top and $165 for side curtains.
