P-51 extrusion source?

Tue Oct 13, 2009 2:11 pm

In all of the collective wisdom out there, does anyone know of a source for a set of airworthy P-51 fuselage extrusions? If so, what sort of price range should I expect?

Thanks in advance.

Tri-State up in Wahpteon usually has a few sets on hand. If not they can source them real quickly. Warning: These are not inexpensive parts! Call TSA and get a quote from them 701.642.5777

Thanks for the information. I don't expect them to be cheap. Anything P-51 has at least an extra zero added to the price...

If you are talking Longerons then John Seevers is the source. He can be reached at 208 634 5631. The last price about a year ago was $3000 a piece, $12000 for the set of 4.
