Hi Jacques! Another
Cadet owner; awesome! Thanks for the moral boost. I'll definitely need it. I hope to be able to start work on the
Cadet before too much longer. Just trying to finish off a couple of other projects first (house reno's, and fixing up a turbo diesel landcruiser I bought to tow my
Cadet with).

I thought that the original fabric would be hard to install and would be fragile. You might try some OZITE...

Hi Floyd, thanks a lot for that link to Ozite. That stuff looks perfect actually! I wonder how bad the off gassing would be with that stuff? Just like any other synthetic product I suppose. It sure looks like it would be easy to mold to the curves of the shell.
