Woah, I was expecting to see something about a big GMC camper van.

Thank goodness I was happily misinformed.

What's the engine from? Or, what's it for?

Shall I assume it's for that Ventura?

Cheers,

David

How much effort to get 58C into the van? and did it all fit? :D :D :D

Dang!.....David , I was not even thinking!!! I look to the heading now and it clearly reads Winnabego!!!!

Pratt and Whitney R-2800-31......Thank you Jim B! This came off a PV-2, and will be going on N7458C.....someday.....

The only part of 58C that went on the trailer was the horizontal stab., and a set of spray booms that used to be on N7670C....the landing gear (PV-2) came from Montana....

Actually, the fuselage will fit in the 53' van, once the center section is removed.....but that will take a fair amount of time....anyone up for a separation party?
