B17E SN 41-2595 restoration Unknown B-17 and 25 parts

Tue Jan 18, 2011 1:24 am

Hi Everyone,

I was hoping that you could help the Desert Rat team by figuring out what parts these might be. The owner and I have been sorting through the different parts that he has accumulated over the years and these so far we don't have a clue as to what they are. Some of them may be from a B-25 according to the Owner of the Rat or they may be from a fighter or who knows what.

This is the link to my flickr stream with the photos.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

This item look like the seat off of an International Harvester Corporation M-2-4 1 Ton Truck. It has the seat bottom rotted out.

Image 4608 looks like the motor that selects filtered or unfiltered air for the engines.
