ive a selection of genuine WW2 aircraft parts that i wish to sell on. they are all odds n sods that were removed from aircraft types such as B24 Liberator, Wellington and Lancaster. the guy who had them was a fitter type ERK during WW2 who liberated these bits from “spares ships” during his time in the RAF. they have been really well looked after during this time.
parts include DC3/C47 widscreen wiper mechanism
gun mounting for single gun, 50 cal i think.
bomb aiming camera + control overrun timing box that goes with it (U.S. army air corps)
Westonhouse Dynomotor
and various other electrical motors,acuators for flaps(?) and airframe internal fixing parts.
im not aiming to sell them here otherwise i would have been really cheeky and posted photos as well.
besides the horrid Ebay does anyone have some recommendations of where to sell them??

Has the twin warning light unit in picture 2 got any numbers ?

Best return £££ would be listing them on eBay under the aircraft parts catergory.

nice Mustang type gun camera!
the guy only ever worked on “HEAVIES” so i assume that was of a B24?. i know that some parts worked across a range of aircraft though

😮 £12.50 per car per day or £17.50 for a car & trailer or a van per day!
PM me an email address if you’d like a Booking Form sending out. 😉
Plus think about all those nice forumites you’d meet! 😀

And if those ideas don’t work, and you need to resort to EBay, don’t forget to list under ‘Spitfire’ and ‘very rare’!

or you can send me a list, and I might buy them!!
Personally, I would do the ebay thing; maximum exposure, and good stuff will get good prices.
