Andy's Pacer restoration thread...
As some may know, Andy Andersen dropped off his Pacer for a complete tear down and recover in my shop... After a couple hang ups with other customers, I finally pulled her in to start the tear down today... First thing... Drain the fuel... Will be pulling the control surfaces today...

Re: Andy's Pacer restoration thread...
SB 819 required, never done
Skylite
Trimmer fuel line STC with maule valve
New panel (early model)
whelen orion LED nav/strobes
Install landing lights fixture
Garmin 300XL GPS comm
Not a mod but new firewall and boot cowl
There will be enough work correcting things from previous restore to keep busy
I installed Grove Wheel and Brakes prior to delivery.
And why don't I do this myself, better half knows she won't see me for several years so.....
and never know, might not live long enough to finish it.

Re: Andy's Pacer restoration thread...
Andy you have a very well known and recognizably unique paint scheme on your Pacer. What's the plan for the new look ?

Re: Andy's Pacer restoration thread...
will be completely different, very simple starting with a modified late colt scheme.

Brian and Andy....I have a new panel if interested. Its a blank from the Cub Doctor. Has the smaller radius at the corners... Original boot cowl will not fit... Six pack can be centered over the yoke.

Yep... No bolt installed... That tube is stuck good though, going to require some heat to get it out..
