Reyes : Anyone looking for parts?

I am going to start liquidating all my inventory except for what i need to build 2 airplanes. I have a tons of parts, so ask away. I do not have any struts or nice cowling available. Parts will be reasonably priced, I am also willing to sell all of it in one lump sum if someone wants a deal, would take probably 2 ryder trucks to move it all. I am also looking for a couple things like rudders and a F-21 nose bowl. Once everyone here has had a shot i will start listing on ebay.

yes im looking for wheels and brakes and a tail wheel and a instrament panel any help would be great .

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

There has been prior discussions on the use of epoxy with brake linings. Great idea, but not FAA approved. Most epoxies de-laminate with heat. Rob Lees, in England, does this. Makes great sense, using the right epoxy, but just not allowed here.

I am looking for brake material for my MLG. I have a BC12d. I also need the rivets.
I am also thinking of epoxying them in lieu of riveting the material, but i need more info on
what type epoxy that would work.

F-19 has the straight axle. BC12-D is tapered axle.
But there are probably exceptions to this rule of thumb.

f-19 is straight axle and used a cleaveland drum brake instead of disc like f-21. I do not have one. sorry.

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

Actually its an F-19. I am hoping a BC12d will work. Would you know? Thanks

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

I have half a dozen beat up old top cowl sets and was trying to make a drawing up to build new ones. They are all different thicknesses and the stiffeners are different on them! Doesn't seem to be ANY standardization.
Any chance your set is a FACTORY set? If so, could you measure the thickness of the skin and doublers and maybe post some photos of how the halves are laid out? It SHOULD NOT be that hard to make new cowl doors, but since they all seem to be replacements I kind of wonder what people used for a guide when making them. Some look like tank armor, some like they used old Turkey baster pans. Some have rolled edges, some have riveted doublers, some nothing. Some have a "U" channel in the middle, some nothing. NONE fit well. I think we have all seen the creative efforts for hinges.

they are Lock Haven factory pieces. I will measure them and let you know.

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

Hi!
I would like if you have bottom & top cowling bc12d 1946
Thanks

yes and no. I have a NOS top and bottom cowl that I have not decided to part with just YET. But I would consider it.

[Ragwing nut]

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

Yes I believe so

it is not sold as a seperate part. You can buy the material to repair the gear last time I looked.

Re: Anyone looking for parts?

you talking about the streamline strut? It is welded at the top and bolted at the bottom?

Yes I believe so
