    need starter for chrysler 70hp model 707hf availability

    Texas Raiders B-17, P-63

    Saw several videos from different angles......a terrible tragedy and the loss of 6 souls.....luckily no one on the ground was hurt/killed. Have seen that plane many times at airshows. A lot of history and aviation experience went up in a ball of flames.

    Yeah, with 2 cylinders low like that probably a good move to sell it if you were not interested in doing the work or throwing more money at it. What kind of engine is on the new boat?
