Looking good. I have only ever seen or used the black o'rings for aircraft.

OK, Thank you, I remember I red here the someone used the red and they are better in winter, I will use the black. In the kit there are 2 o'rings, 1 wiper strip and 1 "backup washer" that I cannot understand where is in the strut... probably there isn't.... Could you help me?
Finally the new firewall is at home!
Thanks to Clyde Cub Doctor

Beautiful work. Getting parts must be a pain.
"You can only tie the record for flying low."
It is.
Thanks to this fantastic forum I found the supplier.
But the shipping to Italy is expensive and long...
But we keep pushing!!

Looking good.
Alessandro,
Do you have easy(ish) access to Aircraft Spruce items in Italy?
If not, you may find it a bit cheaper and easier to try using LAS Aero here in UK (https://www.lasaero.com)
They have weekly shipments from Aircraft Spruce to UK and I have had Aircraft Spruce parts stocked in USA delivered to me in 7 days.
LAS also stock all the Randolph paints etc.

Ciao Tony!
Thank you very much for the info.
Yes, I’ve already bought from Spruce.eu but some parts, as firewall, I must buy in US.
It is a little bit more complicated but the fun part is that I can “meet” a lot of people that love shortwing and Pipers.
The worst shipping will be with Airtex.....
I hope the final result make me happy.
Thank you.
Alex.
