I am looking for an altimeter and airspeed indicator for my 1938 Taylorcraft BF. Does anyone have either in useable condition that would be close to this period?

Thanx,

Re: Instruments

Mike, I do have at least one - but I forgot I just moved all that stuff to our house in Wendell,NC about a month ago.

Won't be there for a month, will find it then and take pictures.

Sorry, I forgot about moving that stuff.

Re: Instruments

You need to decide if you want to go with the original 6:00 adjustment knob or the later design in the lower left corner. The newer ones are easy to find and cheap. The 6:00 originals are getting rare (and EXPENSIVE). I am getting ready to send 4 to Keystone for overhaul and yellow tags. The estimate is over $100 each for the repair (if nothing else is wrong). That is in addition to what I paid for them, which was from $50 to $100. I need two (for my 45 and 41) but plan to pass the others to the other Taylorcrafters for whatever they end up costing me.
What are you looking for?

Re: Instruments

Dave,

I appreciate the offer to take pics. Look forward to seeing them.

Hank,

The 6 o'clock is what I need. Can I get in line for one of the extras(if it is a 6 o'clock)?

Thanx

Re: Instruments

Mike,
I'll give you first option on one. No idea what the exact final cost will be but you can decide when I know the total if you want one.
