Scott, can you replace my T-6 photos in the registry with something a little more current?

Like this for instance:

http://community.webshots.com/photo/244637426/319762335wvmYVR

Needles to say, I'm a little embarrased about all the accumulated dust in those old photos. :oops: My T-6 has gathered no moss (or significant quantities of dust) in some time. 8)

Also, if you want to devote some webspace to put my Webshots T-6 restoration photos on the WIX, maybe it could go into a members projects section to document the progress.

Whaddya think?

She be looking good for an old girl!

She's lookin' good, Brandon.

Sure must be nice to be in the bolt-&-rivet-it-back-on stage instead of the tear-it-off-pressure-wash-wet-sand-&-prime-it point of the project.

Have fun! :wink:

Nope, still doing pressure washing, etching, priming and painting. Painting the wheelwells next. Then I have to do the process on all the landing gear and firewall forward detail parts.

Super cool project Branadon! I passed an an AT-6G in similar shape back in 1992. Complete, no damage, with 0-time prop (but no engine) for about $16K. Your project reminds me of what I could have been involved in right about now had I not screwed myself out of the deal. :roll: Can't wait to see the look on your face after that first flight! 8)
