I was looking around in the workshop the other day when I came across a bundle I got at an auction YEARS ago. It's an unbuilt epoxy-glass fuselage for a quarter midget Little Tony/Cosmic Wind. I also have the undercart, the spats, the wheels, the cowl and a few other bits, but no wing or tail feathers and no drawing/plan. I recon it would make a nice fast sport model for my Irvine 15 (a C/L speed engine).

A few questions:
Does anyone know who might have done the original kit? (Was it terry Prather like the F1 Little Tony?)

Does anyone have or know where I could get a plan or at least a sketch I could base a wing, tail and fin on?

Thanks,

Pete

Hey Pete, It was a Prather kit, and I have the kit ,not only do I have the 15 size kit I have a 40 size kit that Terry put out. They were the best kit I have seen since I started to race in the early 70s, not only do I have the kits I have a custom X 40 supertiger engine that Terry Prather put out. Not only that , I have many 15 size engines including 2 never ran Rossi 15s that are stronger than the Nelson 15 by 1000 rpms.Talk to me for more goodies, See Ya, race44@hotmail,com

All I'm after is the dimensions of the wing, tail and fin/rudder (and possibly the wing section) - if there's a plan is there any chance you could scan it and email it to me?

I am looking for a hot .15 for a Gager Estralita I have. I have some Cox engines, but would prefer a Nelson or a Hot rossi as you meniton.

Any interest in selling one? I'm local to you, don't know you, but race with the Grassfield.

Look at the dates on the posts - he never did come back to me so I assumed he'd had some kind of problem that made it impossible.

I checked his profile and it says his last activity was Jan of this year so maybe you can still reach him by email or PM.
