I know nothing about Corvairs, butat Brodhead last summer, I saw them fly, they sounded VERY GOOD and I was impressed. Needless to say, these came with a project airplane that I acquiredrecently and I'd like to sell the entire lot, with spare parts, fan shrouds, andstuff that I don't even know what it is. I also have a Corvair motormount that a Corvair block was attached to and already mounted on the front of my Piet.Lastly, I has a set of very nice looking VDO gauges that were destined for the Corvair setup.I'm not in a position to box up all this stuff... Too many things to pack and I am without the use of my right hand for probably a couple of months.If anyone in interested, I'm happy to provide a price if you can pick it up in Central Texas. All of the above mentioned parts filled up the entire back end of my Silverado pickup when I brought the stuff home several months ago, so bring a pickup,big van or trailer...Sterling BrooksKnot-2-Shabby Airport & Texas Longhorn Cattle Ranch________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 30 Apr 2005 22:45:40 -0500

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Corvair engines & misc for saleI have one complete Corvair (still intact) and two disassembled Corvair engines, one of which has the 100 HP heads. I know nothing about Corvairs, butat Brodhead last summer, I saw them fly, they sounded VERY GOOD and I was impressed. They ran so smooth, it was difficult to detect vibration as we havein the four cylinder engines. The 6 cylinder Corvair is impressive being so smooth running. I'm selling because I already have a pristine Continental A-80 enginefor my airplane.My Corvair engines came with a project airplane that I acquired recently and I'd like to sell the entire lot, with spare parts, fan shrouds, and stuff thatI don't even know what it is.

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Corvair engines & misc for saleI'm letting everything go for $350. This includes some books about Corvair engines that I haven't even unboxed yet, as well as the VDO gauges and motormount.I'm leaving for Houston and will be gone 5-1 to 5-5 and I'll be gone on a second trip 5-13 to 5-17.In between my trips, I'll try and take some pictures of the three engines, motormount, VDO Gauges and misc. parts to post of MyKitplane.com. For those whohave e-mailed me off list and have expressed an interest in this stuff, it would work best for me if you can come down after 5-17.Also, if you are interested in seeing a couple of pictures that I have, please e-mail me at my high-speed address and I can send some pictures on 5-6.That address is sterling(at)pgrb.comThanks,Sterling BrooksKnot-2-Shabby Airport5TA6Winters, TX________________________________________________________________________________
