What is he lookin for? And is it for a KF or an Avid? 

Well i dont know what price to put on the parts. About only thing i think i could use is the Avid wings and wing tanks on my KitFox. The rest is not to useable to me and fuseloge still has one control stick in it (Leni got the pass side one) hahaaaa if u need stuff let me know and we can talk.  (907)460-9591 call or text bucky

Well that is looking damm nice and fast work.  My KitFox is comin along well also. By the way is ur lookin for some Avid A parts i have one here im parting out, (with 3 KitFoxs #0021,0038,0048 i dont need to build the Avid,  have set of builable wings,doors,flaperons,turtledeck,cowl,fuseloge w/tail cut off but have tail,control surfaces,think a set of gear,wing struts w/wood farings, and lots of mis parts, cockpit control stick and linkages, foot controls if anyone lookin for stuff its all cheap or trades work to, and i belive Avid A build book/paperwork planns 

Just looked at my email from orderin Oratex for coverin dads pa12.  Doing all of the plane, EXCEPT the wings,  And better aircraft fabric sold me 20yds and i belive its the 70" wide, will know for sure when it shows up here in the next week i hope. 

Well made some more progress today with plumbin ect. Even did a quick fit of the cowl, so far all is going good id say.  Now to c what ill finish tomorrow. Hahahhaaaaaaa 

Well motor is all mounted, was interesting figuring what difference was between the 503 that was in it to the 582, but just had to look into the build manuals i have from my BlackFox.  Today ill get the Cbox on and Radiator and start plumbing coolant lines.  Question i have,, how much fabric does it take to cover a KitFox model 1? Im about ready to place my order for Oratex 6000 in Corsair Blue to cover this plane once i get everthing mocked up in place.  

Nanco 21x12x8. These came with the BlueFox but im going to buy a set of 27x10.5x8 Dessers for this one.  I have the 21" Dessers on my BlackFox and i really like them. 

Yahoo!!! Im back to work on the BlueFox, got landing gear sandblasted, primed, painted this weekend. Today was able to get her into a three legged roller. 

Man i like that bird!!! Sweet lookin machine great to c u have it back together!! -24 here this am so just dreamin of flyin here for a bit. 

To get all the fabric and all the tools to do the job on dads PA12 was $3892.40 for fabric, and $364.09 for the tools.  And that includes shippin to my door in Ester Alaska.  If u ask me i think the price was very fair and Paul and Larz in anchorage r good guys to deal with and the keep me informed as to when it will b headed my way.  When i first ordered the fabric they said it could take up to 6-8 weeks to get it released and then what time it takes to get it from there to here. 

How about Oratex 600 lightweight or the Oratex 6000? I did some repair work on my BlackFox with Oratex, what an easy stuff to work with, my BlueFox will get covered with it.  And im waitin on my order of Oratex 6000 in White to cover the PA12.  And have u watched the burnin of the Oratex fabric? It puts its self out in a fire compaired to normal aircraft fabric, the say u can save 25-35lbs on a whole recover on a PA 18-PA12 

This if my "Black Fox"  And the one im buildin now "Blue Fox" 

SuberAvid man thats a sweet lookin bird there.  I like the pic of it we get to c once and awhile, hope my new KF build turns out that nice. 

Ahhhh i c.  Hahahaaa thanks for the info Jim! Like i said im still learning hahaaaa. Ahhh heck Joey buy urself a present just ask ur better half first thats what i do. 

Hey Mike what did u end up doing about ur prop delema? Ru interested in sellin the complete IFA prop u took off? 

Well im interested in the props but question is will they fit a 582-C box? Im not to good with knowing about props yet.   Also im in Ester, Alaska, 99725, i wonder where ur at and what shippin mayb. 

Sent out the $ today, sorry took so long i spaced it out. And been busy with the kid gettin suspended from school and all the snow we just got, least he was around to help shovel and plow snow. Lol   Thanks again Bucky

Most of his parts r sled motor parts, blocks,cranks,cyl,heads,mayb some electrical,ect.  Im not sure on the exhaust elbow i think thats more of an aircraft item, but ill check with him first of this week.  

R they $15 each still? How about to ship them? Thought id check that b4 i send u a short evnelope. Hahhaaaaaa  Bucky 

i have a line on any used 503/532/582 motor parts if anyone needs stuff.  I have a friend here in fairbanks alaska has shelves full of parts he would love to move out and make room for newer sled parts as that what he works on mostly now. 

Nice video/ joey!!! Great views in them pic!!! Mayb ill get ur way for a ride one day.  Bucky

Well im thinking about sellin the blue Kitfox model 1, serial# 0038 fuselage in good shape will need recovered, right wing ok but needs covered, left wing will need rebuilt and recovered, has stock gear with matco brakes wheels and 21" tires, also need new lexan, ect.  No motor or drive or prop, plane use to have a 503/A box, and i have ALL paperwork, hr meter says55hrs, also has an Avid fuselage with miss parts and buildable wings.  Im in it for $4000. Hope to sell for that. 

Well a 912 would b nice but they r to spendy for me at the moment, i have the complete 582/C and lots of parts,  I think i could put whole plane together with minimal stuff to buy just have lots of work to do on the left wing.   Mayb 582/C, minimal electric, rope start, try shed all the weight possiable for a nice light bird for fishin after work, and weekends and still have my black one as my cadillac. Hahahaaaaa

Decisions,Decisions,Decisions??? Hahahaaaa i just couldnt stand it had to drag KF #0038 in the garage and  try to decide what i want to do.  My black one KF #0021 is ready to fly now all stock with the 532/A drive,  And i have a 582/C drive was going to install. But Mayb ill put the 582/C drive in this one,,,,,,,, to many decisions hahahahahaaaaaaa
