I have a set of Gene Barton retracts for sale. I'm told they're for an 80" Yellow Aircraft P-47, but I have no way to confirm that. I'd be happy to take any measurements and or additional pictures upon request to ensure they'll fit your model. Just let me know. I'm asking $150 shipped within CONUS.

Not sure what you have friend but i question the giant scale p-47. I have that plane and the retracts are double plus a bit the size of what you have here. Here's a pic of the build.
It is possible yours are for a .60 size though. They do look similar to ones I have for that plane.

Thanks for the feedback (sincerely). I'll do a little more digging. I certainly don't want to misrepresent these.

DMoody--You are comparing them to a Giant Scale Top Flite P-47 which uses a totally different style of retract as well being 5-6" bigger. The TF has the offset style retract like you show while the Yellow kit uses the more conventional style mounting flanges like the OP shows.
The Robart website: http://www.robart.com/products/yello...matic-retracts
shows a similar style gear as the Barton.
