Which airplane? 2 or 4 seat? Did you try to find the door? Where are you located?
The glass should still be available from Aircraft Windshield.
All you really need is an inner door skin which can be laid up and released from
an existing door. The linkage and outer skin can be made from scratch.

If the door is just damaged, you should be able to repair it with some
fiberglass work. The repaired area will even be stronger than the rest of
the door.
Do you have the Hendricks latching mechanism? I had a door open in flight
on me on two different occasions and the Hendricks latch system with some
minor modifications eliminated the problem completely.

I will actually be in Sacramento tonight for work. If you would like to bring it
by the embassy suites hotel downtown around noon tommorrow I would be happy
to look at it. Since you have the door it is repairable.
Otherwise just post pictures.
Cheers
Scott

I am going to replace the prop on my KIS TR-1 that has a Cont. IO-240.
It currently has a Sensenich 69x72.
I am interested in what prop you are using and its static RPM, Max power
RPM and speed and 2550 RPM speed.
Please expand your comments to include your opinion on changes you would
recommend to your prop, if any.
Your comments on the manufacturer. Or other suggestions.
Thanks for your help,
Tim N52TY

Other than I broke it, it was low on static RPM, 2000. Max power at 3000'
was 2800RPM so cruise was good but I would like better T/O performance. I
was wondering if someone had a design that doesn't have such a wide spread.
Is 800 static to max RPM seems like allot.
A friend has a TR-1 with a LYC 0-320 and his is more like 2350 static and
2700 max. I forget the manufacture, it is 65" long I believe.

This is a place to start....
http://www.culverprops.com/pitchselection.htm
I have a prince prop I am happy with. The tip is swept so the blades twist to
a somewhat finer pitch on takeoff. My prince prop is 68x80 and it turns 2700
rpm at 200 mph level on my taildragger TR-1 with RV-8 wheelpants and gear leg
fairings on mains and tailwheel fairings which matches well to the website calculator.
What top speed did you get out of your old prop?
The Elippse propeller design is also worth concidering. The prince guy makes the
elippse props but someone else designs them. The prince guy is pretty responsive
to emails.
