Hey all,

This project comes with a running160hp, not mounted. I'm not sure it makes

sense to hang that much extra wt. to the front of a 60 yr. old frame. Think

beer belly!

Also has custom made aluminum spring gear and axles.Do they bounce also?

Even has been line bored for brake lines.

I have to replace spars, build cowl and whatever it takes to keep it 51% and

well under 1320lbs. so I can fly with a sport pilot lic.

  I'm going to have to take a 16hr. course to annual my own hand built Kolb

anyway. Don't figure, if I had gone EAB I wouldn't.

   Probably a better project for Ellery but he's a little touchy about

Kolbs. Kinda like John H.

Nothing derogatory meant of course.
