Does anyone make a canvas cover or bows kit for the M1078, M1083, or M1082?

Tank Workshop does a few different canvases that fit both the M1078 LMTV and the M1082 LMTV trailer. I have a couple of them and they are really nice.
Open back
Closed back
Side views for both.
Rolled sides
To make one for an M1083 FMTV, you would need to combine two of the M1078 tops to fit the longer cargo bed.

The bow support spacing is completely different on the 1083. It would be difficult to cut and splice given the wrinkle and fold details.
