A little putty and some buffing, she'll be good as new! Bits and pieces that are no use on the rebuild, good way to draw in some cash. Much better than scrapping like the Services museums do with a lot of their leftovers! :shock: Hope the bits come with some sort of little certificate of being genuine Luftwaffe Warbird bits.

White 1 has a working 801 in the engine shop being rebuilt. It will be the only original Fw-190 when completed. It would be nice to have a spare if you know of one. The parts here for sale are for those who might want something from a Fw-190 as a collectors item. All usable parts will go into the airplane.
