Hi, Can anyone set me straight, I am I right in thinking a T6 Harvard main wheel will fit a P-63 King Cobra? I ask from a static museum display point of view.

Also, is there anything out there that is similar in size and style to the P-63 nose wheel or is this a "Bell" only part?

Thanks

Dan

I am no expert but I know that many of the racing Mustangs have P-63 wheels installed. I believe that the Harvard and the Mustang used the same size main wheel so it seems to me then Mustang wheel ought to fit on a P-63 at least for static display purposes. Not sure whether the brakes and brake plumbing though.
