Walter, if you can find a good bone orchard, let me know, please.Every wreck that I've seen, even coming down the Alaska highwaypiled 4 deep on a flatbed have been on there way to rebuildfacilities. I talked to one of the haulers and all they need isthe plate and number, and they rebuild as certified. Quite abusiness. I have had no luck at all in locating used, but not tooabused, instruments for the same reasons. Any body got a goodsource? I would sure like to know. Even the Cub landing gear offthe old wrecks are not available.----- Original Message -----

oil temp/pressure gauges like you are describing (cub style) are on E-Bayall the time and go fairly cheaply. Also, go to any fly-in that has a fleamarket . . most notably Sun-n-Fun coming up has ten times the flea marketsthat Oshkosh does.________________________________________________________________________________

Have you tried Wentworth Aircraft parts in Minneapolis? They have lots ofeverything for the single engine plane.. They buy salvage planes and sellparts. I have seen Cubs there in the past.Dick Navratil----- Original Message -----
