I've got my eye on a LWB Landie, but it's got a truck cab and canvas on the back, like this: and ideally I want a straight through sort of deal to the rear. Is it just a bolt on job to change it?

yep.
they're all bolt-on bolt-off jobs...
I changed the roof 3 or 4 times on my old 2a.

Roofless inspiration.... FUN! ;D Oh, and here is 'Cab' and 'Full' Cab was held on with the bolts and mastik - was a complete pain.

Can re-affirm everything already stated in as much as they come apart easily(subject to usual bolt shearing etc!) and go together in most configurations(stationwagon is slightly different but hardtop and truck cabs interchange. And if you're feeling brave there's always a full canvas top although I think the frames for those are getting a little pricey now unless the spurious boys are churning some out these days.
