Hi Tony,

about the 107 truck cab - it came in 2 styles to accomodate different types 
of rear hoods.

The early type had no provision to fasten the hood to the rear panel of the 
truck cab. This type has no gutter or flange around the rear window. The 
hood therefore has a clear plastic window in the panel directly behind the 
cab. See one here:

and here:

The later (1955 I think) type of truck cab has accomodations to fasten the 
hood directly to the truck cab - therfore it has a gutter or flange to 
accept straps. These were standard on export 107/109 but an option in the UK 
market. See one of this type here:

Although not a clear photo, if you look carefully you will see that the hood 
attaches to the flange or gutter around the rear window:

My 107 is the blue one in the above photos - the hood is by Exmoor Trim and 
I have to direct some criticism at them here: Exmoor does not have the 
correct pattern to make the style of hood that attaches to the cab. The 
straps for the vertical flanges on the cab are too short and sewn onto the 
hood in the wrong place.

I think the 107 axle has no reinforcing ribs on it.

Hope this helps
