A friend of mine has acquired a C-123 from Edwards AFB recently and he is only wanting the fuselage, his plan is to cut the wings off. He's looking for anybody that wants the engines and wings? Message me and I'll get you in touch.

Yanks in Chino has a C-123 and they are fairly local.

That I'm not sure of, he hasn't given me much details. I'm not sure if the radials are any dash # desirable within the Warbird community. Is the the one with Air Heritage still airworthy? Maybe they could use some spares?, will try and get a hold of them.

The Yanks C-123 is the ex-Tallichet example.

Air Heritage has the only airworthy one presently.

Where is it based? There's one local to Atlanta that I've seen flying in the last couple or three years.

I believe there is also a group trying to get "Ponderous Polly" going:
