Looking for an axle mounted canopy umbrella sunshade for a 1940 Farmall B. Needs to be at least 50" wide. Would prefer 5-bow. Have searched several sources but all seem to be out of stock. Any ideas or options? :?:
 
I am building a parade wagon and bought a 3-bow canopy for the wagon seat. I probably did research similar to what you have done and found that I can only buy a 3-bow canopy in either a 40" width or 48" width. The axle mounts for either width are available. I'm going to have special mounts fabricated as I will bolt them to my wagon seat. I have not found a 4 or 5 bow canopy, nor have I found a canopy bigger than 48". Some of the sites to look at - unless you already have - are gemplers.com,agrisupply.com, tractorumbrellas.com
 
I have purchased several canopies from Shoup. They do
have a website. Just google the name.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did google the site. Size limited to 48". Need 50" to 51". Ordered a 51" to 54" canvas and a narrower 5-bow canopy frame from Quality Farm Supply. I have a farmer friend that will cut a splice to make the frame wider and custom make axle mounts. Hope it works. Saw one in Florida last winter and took pictures.
 

I ended up ordering a smaller 5-bow frame and large canvas from Quality Farm Supply. Have a farmer friend that will cut and splice the frame to make it wide enough to fit the canvas. Will also custom make axle mounts. Saw one in Florida last winter and took pictures.
