It seems like our third week of waking up to -5 F to +8 F in the AM. Boy is this brutal. Feel like when I was 10 again in the back seat of the '53 Packard, waiting to get home to ride my bike, asking " are we there yet?" walt NX140DL (north N.J.) DO NOT ARCHIVE Corky, how much beach time did you get this week? ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:36:17 PM PST US From: Isablcorky@aol.com Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: it's so stinking cold/ are we there yet? --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Isablcorky@aol.com A Packard.

I have a case, crank,cam, four con rods and cyls, and back plate and starter ring, and oil pan. Especially need rocker arms, push rods and tubes, two mags. New parts will be bearings, piston and pins etc. I don't have a trade a plane so I would appreciate any expertise on suppliers. Thanks Corky in La ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 08:48:13 PM PST US From: "Bert Conoly" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: it's so stinking cold/ are we there yet? --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Bert Conoly" Walt , it's below 30 in the Panhandle of Florida!

I would like to here from anybody who has one as to the installation. Also thanks to Dan for suggesting the Asuza brakes from Comet cart sales The price was right and the service was good. They fit the existing 5" drums on my 8.00x 4 piper cub wheels just fine. I will have to modify the backing plate a little to fit the undercarriage but that is pretty simple. It looks like the easiest place for pedals is toe brakes on the rudder pedals. As I am making a single seater being 6'4" tall I will use the front pedals only and add toe brakes Les
