A place where restoration project-type threads can go to avoid falling off the main page in the WIX hangar. Feel free to start threads on Restoration projects and/or warbird maintenance here. Named in memoriam for Gary Austin, a good friend of the site and known as RetroAviation here. He will be sorely missed.

Does anyone have a source for serviceable P2V Neptune Wheels?
Thanks,

Suggestion: Check with Neptune Aviation in Montana. They operate a fleet of Neptune airtankers. If anyone would know where to get parts, they would.

Or EVERGREEN in Miranna, they do/did operate lots of P2V tankers, no telling whats out there in the rattlesnake breeding grounds. And..they do seem to be well connected to certain items that no one else can get-after all, they were the ONLY bidder on what was the Air Force base that became Miranna, at government directive. They got 20K acres for 200K and everything lit right up after throwing the switches in the powerhouse.

You might try, California Airframe Parts near the Oakland Airport. They always had an assortment of Warbird parts, WWII and Korean War (or was that a Police Action?)
