Michigan Parts

Post by V529 »

Recently I toured an elderly gentleman's hangar in South Central Michigan. "Battle Creek" is the closest large city.

Richard Fifer has an extensive inventory of C-120 and 140 parts he wants to sell. I'll include a few pictures.

He has a flyable 1948 140. It's going through annual, it's not a beauty queen, there's a bit of hail damage on the upper surfaces. It does have metalized wings and a C-90 engine. Radios are poor.

He has multiple fuselages, tail sections, gear boxes, landing gear parts, Scott 3200 tail wheels etc.
Unfortunately most of the fuselages/parts/sections there of are damaged. There are many good parts, but you would want to have the time to remove them.

He also has a dis-assembled 0-200, good for a core. He has 120/140 skis and various other parts.

In addition.......if you are an "Airplane person".
He has a 1950's C-180 that could be made to fly.......it's complete but will need a GOOD annual.
He has an older C-182 with the wings off.
He has a Kit fox project, no engine or engine mount, but the rest of it is all there. Looks new, almost ready for cover and assembly.

You can contact him at 269-303-1546.
To purchase any of this stuff you would have to drive there with a trailer, I doubt he's going to ship anything. Also, email or facebook is not his forte.

Thanks Victor. Did you recall seeing any fuel gauge surround trim pieces?

Too bad he's not going to ship, I would be interested in the oil tank in one of the pictures.

David, he probably, would have some......but there was so much stuff that I don't recall and fuel gauge surrounds.

Blaine,......he may ship, all you can do is call and ask.

Thanks for posting. I'll be home in Kalamazoo end of August, I'd like a Scott 3200 to replace my maule, hopefully I can grab one from him.
