Pair of lower wings for Skybolt. Picked these up with a package of parts. Yes, I'm a pack rat. But I need to make room in the shop and I think my appetite for putting another one of these together is minimal at this point in my life.
Looks like they are from older plans since pushrod is one piece (no walking beam), and hardware is external. You can see one of the wings has some aluminum LE and no TE, the other has TE but no LE. Honestly I'd put the ply on the LE, though, makes a much stronger wing. Ailerons, hinges, and hardware appear to all be there.
Solid (not routed, stay away from those) spars. Wood looks like it's in excellent shape. Drag/anti-drag wires should be disassembled and cleaned/painted or replaced with stainless.
$1100 + you arrange/pay for shipping. I have a container that will hold them for truck shipping, but I would need $250 additional to pack them in it securely. Best plan is to pick them up yourself.
