Guys
I am currently looking for "fishtail" exhaust stacks for the P-40.
The more the better

They need to be serviceable or with minor repairs that can be corrected to serviceable.
Any leads would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance

I guess you've got the bit that goes between the gunsight and the exhaust stubs, then. ;)

Good luck, nice to see this kind of detail work being pursued - not surprising given the organisation in question though!

Cheers,

Hi James,

If you are still looking for stacks, I can put you in touch with a source for new manufacture stacks. The original items suffer badly from cracking due to the type of material .
