Hi Trevor,
Many builders have found interference with the F705 Bulkhead and the F789 Elevator
Push Rod assembly. The problem has been the bottom or lower side of the tube
rubbing on the bottom side of the cut out for the tube in the F705 Bulkhead
(lower side of the cut out)... I would check this closely.
Build on...
Darrell

I started construction in 2001, but do not fly any more, and offering it for sale.
Meticulously crafted, primed with zinc chromate. I have completed the Tail,
Wings, and most of the Empennage. I even purchased the finishing kit, but
have not worked on it for some time, and would be an enormous head start if
you are looking to fly soon.
Builder #90147. Provision for Tail light, Dual Brake, Dual Landing lights, Wingtip
with provision for position lights, Static Air, Slider Canopy, Dyna/cowl
for O-320, Spinner for Sensenich metal prop. Many of these options you can probably
still change at this point.
Currently, the Van's quickbuild price $30,200 and kit price is $20,220. I am offering
this kit for $19,000, firm. In addition, I will set aside $1,000 of the
payment aside for 12 months from date of purchase to pay for up to that amount
in parts which are missing (I have carefully kept track of everything so I
don't think this will be an issue).
Kit is located in Monterey, California. I was able to move it with a 15' moving truck. Pics available at http://img42.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=pc150115.jpg
Please contact me for any questions.

Empennage COMPLETED (Interior - Acid Etched, Alodined and Mil Epoxy Primered) =
Meticulous workmanship. QB Wings and QB Fuselage have NOT been started. Everything
is in excellent condition and nothing is missing (Complete Kit)
Asking $19.5K. Currently Vans sells (above) - Empennage + QB Wings + QB Fuselage
for $25K (includes Crating Charges) and there is a long "Lead Time".
Ideally like to find a Builder (Partner) to work together to complete Project who
has space to build it or sell it.
Presently hangared in Chino, CA. Need to move ASAP !!
