Need help finding Ranchwagon wingtip and pushrods!

[Ian Norgrove]

Hi, The picture attached is of the right wingtip from my Taylorcraft 20 Ranchwagon/Zephyr #N6669N. It was part of an auction several years ago in Oregon (Portland/ Hillsborough area), unfortunately it was grouped with a different auction lot and was sold to another bidder, probably another Taylorcraft or Stinson. The paint scheme on the wingtip is quite distinctive, so if you have seen it among someone's collection would you please let me know, it may be beaten up, but I need it to repair or as a guide to mould a new one. I will gladly pay for it. Also missing under the same circumstances are two aileron pushrods, 3/4" dia. and approx. 11' long with a clevis on one end and a rod end on the other, any leads to these would be appreciated.
Thanks Ian

Hi Ian,

Back from the Florida winter and catching up. I have six of those door handles and mechanisms for three doors that I won't be using. The early 15A door handles that I am using are different. How many do you need ? The leading and trailing edge samples that were to be sent to you are still setting here in Maine if you need them. I have an extra set of aileron push tubes but they are the earlier 15A version that used the cable cross connect. My newer set may be the same as your 20 and they are out of the wings if measurements will help.
I am Looking for the correct dome light speaker grill for the 15a if you have any info or pictures.
