Need Help

[duanehydro]

Ok, this is my newest project...Bob came down from Austin today, and brought his old parts...the propshaft is 76 1/2 inches end to end, 1" diameter. the rudder is the stardard steel wedge type, 12" X 5.5" with 12" X 1"shaft, the strut I will measure the angle on @ lunch. For those of you that don't already know, Bob was diagnosed with lung cancer and we are pulling together to get him some parts. Paypal Donations can be made to duane1@cox-internet.com Thanks for everyone's help. If a donation is made, please send me a pm or state it here. Thanks again!

Duane :
What is wrong with the parts that you have there , beside some rust ?
It that is all that is  wrong , clean them and have them died checked and run them .

I have to clean  the rust off my new rudder everytime I take it out . Chrome is bad for rudder and props . you can not see cracks in them ..

 

[duanehydro]

Bob hit some large boulders on the colorado river, :huh: they are bent, the prop was destroyed, I am donating a prop... :smile20:
