  1. He does nice work and if you want more complex you order the mask and hand it to humor tell him to add a mask to the paint job price
  2. Just useless info..... did you know that the vr24 voltage regulator off of a 1960 mercury Montclair is the same as on the Mooney ? I was totally amazed
  3. Will do. I don’t think the iPhone camera does the blue justice. As soon as the vacuum pump is replaced and I get home from NEXT tour photos will be posted... if I can find someone quick enough to keep up with me. :-)
  4. Ok am home and caught up on chores and so here are a few photos of my plane
  5. Yes. Have used them several times
  6. Thanks for the info. I remember seeing someone here that had gotten a rubber gasket of some kind from Lowe’s but if I don’t come across that info then to oreilleys aviation dept it is
  7. am gonna have some time to do detail work on my plane due to a nose truss repair (dont ask) and i saw a while back about rubber seals bought at lowes to get away from the gummy kids stuff. i couldnt fond the info by looking at past threads so could somebody direct me to the info ? thanks in advance
  8. Sure. Here is his info Kevin Late Late aircraft repair Pocahontas,Arkansas 870 219-3181
  9. Thanks. I tried to make it simple and classy when I put the scheme together. I will get more photos when I get it back out of the hanger but am about to head out to work so I will be gone for several days but will post as soon as I take pics
  10. The blue color is cobalt blue the same as comes on corvettes
  11. No I didn’t pay 15.5. I paid a little over 9
  12. Ok the final outcome for my paint is this. Kevin did a good job overall on the stripping and repainting. The paint job itself is excellent and good quality. The layout was not as good but for the price I paid for it I can live with the imperfections
  13. i will post final information when i get the plane home. I had looked at the painters past work and he had done excellent work but this would have looked better if i hadnt done curves and had stuck with straight lines
  14. Well the painter sent me this pic of the plane that I will pick up next week. You can see a few differences from the drawing that I made after seeing
  15. They do. But more at dusk. So you can’t see them on an attack vector
  16. Hey everybody I know it is short notice but I am hosting another cookout here in Bald Knob Arkansas today. It will start about 4 and go til the mosquitoes start biting. Usually around 7:30. If anybody is trying to find an excuse to warm their oil it is a beautiful day to get airborne and meet new people
  17. Here are the latest photos of the plane. He plans on shooting it later this week so it will be done when I get off tour
  18. Am having a cookout if anybody is near m74 Bald Knob Arkansas today. It will he burgers and dogs and start around four and go til the mosquitoes start biting or carrying off small children. If anybody is itching to fly come on out and stop by

  19. no just the airframe on the paint my next annual will probably have the gear pulled and painted. my mechanic is kind of a perfectionist and last annual was too cold to do that and we were under a time crunch to get it out of a rented hanger
  20. He told me 4 weeks when we first spoke so I hope so but we will have to see how it goes
  21. Status as of today
  22. Latest photo of the paint job getting started
  23. dont forget to check all of the grounding straps (dont ask me how i know). hopefully it will be something simple. mine acted like yours and turned out to be the airframe to engine ground strap
  24. I hope it looks good. The drawing was the only one I could find to use for sketching paint jobs
