Re: Wanted: Prather Toni cowl
Hi Matt,
I sent you a PM but it seems hung up in the Outbox(????)
I went through my old box of goodies and have an uncut Tony cowl, as well as
a used cowl, painted orange, and in great shape. I believe it was set up for
an X-40 Supertiger.
Let me know...
Very Best Regards,
Tom
