Wing Bracket issue

Post by MarinerMan »

So I have some pretty good fabrication people that I work with, and I was thinking about getting them to make some of the unobtainium wing brackets, instead of using the 3M double-sided tape method of things. Does anyone have an old, uninstalled one that they can measure? I have looked for diagrams and drawing online, or getting decent pictures that aren't a wonky isometric angle, but I have had no luck. Anyone able to assist?

Good to see these are available to buy. They do get rusted. I wonder if the sedan version is available similarly. I think I have a couple of sets of those but they have been NLA for years.

Just checked. Yes he does! Awesome.
