big price for a panel… whatever the aircraft!
If you had to have this part fabbed for a 109, I can guarantee it would cost way more than 3500Euros. It is expensive of course, but look at all those compound curves… not cheap to make by any stretch of the imagination. Cool find though!
Cheers,
Richard

Using babelfish (which is utterly useless) the only bit that actually describes the part is the first sentence. The literal translation is “A fuselage segment (engine cover) is auctioneered the famous Messerschmitt ME BF 109, rarely!”
I think you will get the jist of it.
The rest is about shipping conditions and who the seller will and won’t deal with and that by it now can be used by arrangement.
Basiclly there are 400 words of none related waffle.
As for the item, it looks like it came from a scrap yard, if it was a crash item the radiator / oil cooler air scoop wouldn’t be straight.

Anyone care to translate what it says? Be interesting to see the description (or at least the general gist of it anyway!)
