Spitfire firewall top curved cowling rail

Another drawing request!!? Please?! A nice chap has made me the curved L channel that takes the cowling fasteners and goes around the top (half moon shape). Anyway, I need to finish it (trim width and put in cowl fastener holes).
Any help appreciated cheers tony

Hi Qldspitty, i was after a drawing for the fwd hoop that the fuel tank cover sits on. After a lot of searching have found the drawing, 36630-15 fwd boundry angle. Thanks anyway.

The forward angles attach the engine cowlings – the rear one is a one piece item with (with inward projecting brackets) which holds the tank armour and the fwd fastenings for the tank cover.

Hello Tony, I’ve got a complete but, inevitably, distorted front armour plate which i’ll sort out measurements from if you need them. Or you could bring a big sheet of paper to Popham and draw around it.

Don’t forget the armour plate that attaches to the back of this item.

cheers Steve…..I have the rear 1/2 moon thingy, but have not managed to acquire real armour yet…will prob have to get a drawing and make an MDF one as a starter!!

Unless anyone has some armour kicking around needing a deserving home!!???
