What is the aprox cost of a wing rebuild? How about a horizontal, vertical, tail feathers etc.? Anybody ever done this? I would like to get mine rebuilt to factory.
Thanks

And for wings, Williams in Indiana does excellent work.

Hail beat me to placing my newly acquired 53 in my new hangar by one day 
(yeah it was insured). As a result, I had to have the tops of my wings, flaps, ailerons, elevators, and horizontal reskinned. I had them do the bottoms of the control surfaces also since they were apart. I took them all to Williams Airmotive as mentioned earlier in this string. Was pleased. Seems like it was about $11,000 about 2-3 years ago for all with me dropping them off and picking it up.

I concur - West Coast Wings rebuilt my flaps and I'm very happy with the results.
