Progress While the Turkey's Cooking

I waited 2 months to get eyebrow scoops from Wag-Aero. While she-who-must-be-obeyed was cooking our T-giving turkey today, I installed them on my A65 I added a pic of my panel.

Re: Wanted Cont. 65 motor mount.

Decided to build my own mount.
Found locally a welder & built a jig & cut tubes.
Had them tacked in place & the welder will fully weld them Friday evening.
Hope to test fit my engine Saturday before cleaning up the mount and painting it.

Wanted Cont. 65 motor mount.

I bought Elton's NX1940 and need to mount the Continental.
Does anyone have a motor mount for sale that meets the Ford attach points?

Wanted WW W&B

Hi, new to forum, I would like a copy (paper or pdf) of William Wynne's weight and balance sheet/instructions for Pietenpols. I got on the wrong side of the master and he's not returning my inquiries. :oops: I will be setting up a Cont. 65 that was originally flown with the Ford. Thanks. Hi to Oscar...
