I don't know why someone at "the factory" doesn't get proactive and get them. They are obtainable...and I have them. I guess I should open my store...
Give me a call, 253-631-5280, and we'll work something out.

The factory is heading toward the periodic deep sleep that owners of the type certificates go through
every decade or so.
Let's just hope somebody like Univair doesn't buy them.
Somehow they have PMA for luscombe sheet metal... but cannot produce a cowl that will fit
with less than a full week of cutting a fitting.. you can see them.. sticking out like a sore thumb in the fleet.
Big money.. big crap.
All the Luscombe stuff was made with big dies.. and stamped by machines 2 or 3 stories high.. like fenders in a ford plant. No more.
Dies disappear. Workman die, the jigs are trashed.
Enter the clowns...
Seriously Dan.. a volume of usable industrial parts and repair techniques is something you could write
and would become indespensible in the next decades.. as the fleet dwindles.. and the knowledge dies
out with us.. one by one.
Turn off the internet and the fleet would come to a grinding halt.
Gimme a manual I can hold in my hand.
