Didn't it have some tidy looking canvas on the sides once upon a time?

Partial canvas ....

Must have been someone else. I had canvass down to the sides on my 75 ute. It was very handy ,it had zips and windows made of mosquito mesh. Great for sleeping in

I had a couple of older Land Rovers (1960's) with full canvas tops and I was never comfortable with the lack of visibility thus the partial canvas on the Ute. It provided shade and that was about it.

It was also pretty brutal in Southern Georgia this morning.
 
Did find a bit of corrosion on the locking hub parts on the right side. Will have to see what options there are for replacements.

Why do you need replacements
 
How bad did the rust affect them? 20c at 6am and beach time

I can see if the rust keeps growing that it could eventually affect the sliding in/out. And I hate rust :)

You don't keep them ensconced in grease?

I've only had this truck about 6mo. Don't know how long they have been rusty. I don't think the previous owner would have done much deep water fording when he had it :-) So, don't know when they started to get rusty. They have a lot of "smear" on them now.
