Post subject:  Need help IDing an aircraft instrument panel
Group,

A couple of years ago, I purchased a PT-19 to restore.
When I emptied out the hanger, I found this instrument panel and I am trying to ID the type aircraft it came from.

Thank You

I don't know the type however it looks like it has instruments from different eras (1925 to 1935?)
That mag switch is correct for a friend's restoration if it is for sale.

dtpitcairn,

I had narrowed the panel down to pre WW II, based on instrumet design, but can not ID aircraft type.
At first I thought it may be a Stearman panel, since the owner also had a stearman, but no go.
I have been through most pre-war aircraft I can think of, but still have not been able to ID the panel.

The last owner had quite a collection of aviation artifacts (P-3 halmets, with original artwork, Stearman, Unk rudder with Red/Wht stripes, ect....).

I would prefer not to part out the panel, at least until I know what aircraft it goes to.

Thanks

Is that a throttle in the middle? If so it makes me think that it may be from some late 20's/early 30's radial-engined high wing plane with side by side seating. Monocoupe, perhaps? Kari Keen Coupe? Taylor Chummy?

Just brainstorming here...
