What did you buy for your 170 today?

Dave what a clean looking airplane, the larger spinner just looks right on your plane.

Yes John, I consider myself to be very lucky. The airplane was put into its current condition by its previous owner, a local AME and vintage airplane lover, who continues to perform its maintenance. The 'look' of the current spinner took me awhile to get used to -- I liked the old skull cap look -- but this new one came as part of an O-300-D installation that was in place 2 years before I purchased the airplane. After a few months, however, the new look started to look 'just right'.
Have a great summer.

After a long unsuccessful attempt at converting my 170A and hoping for some follow through from DelAir for the STC and installation kit - which may Never occur - I bought all the parts and pieces for a beautiful converted 170B with all the bells and whistles - fully assembled and ready for action!!
Should have just done this all along like everyone suggested.....

Two big boxes showed up for 80A. Complete new interior kit from Airtex.

After spending quite a bit of time looking for one of these, I finally found one. Now my door latch will be happy.

Lol. I think that guy has more of them.

... With all of the fuel system with the new IO 360 having the header tank inside the airplane. I thought a fire extinguisher would be a good Idea. A good ide in any case and something I have been meaning to do anyway. I will purchase a hose for the fire extinguisher that Amerex sells seperatly.

New PMA8000BTi audio panel and two new radios. Just finishing up the wiring harness. I plan on installing it while I have the interior out so I can run all the wire and rear headset jacks.

Had some nice stuff from BAS show up this week. Shoulder harnesses and tail pull handle.

My A&P just ordered a brand-spanking new (complete) set of Airform baffles and a new tailwheel spring assembly. All proactive to keep out of trouble. Install date mid-January.

Edit (1/19/2018): just received some progress photos from the A&P doing the install work. Note "before" and "after" ...
