Douglas DC-2 Restoration

Hi Guys, I am restoring DC-2 s/n 1376 , one of the 8 DC-2's left. I still have a long way to go , but she will fly again. I am lucky in that I have the original seats and its 90% complete . I am missing some important bits though that have been pinched over the years . Control Wheels , Throttle quadrant , RH instrument panels , and many smaller components. As you can imagine , the souvenier hunters have stripped the cockpit bare , but nothing that cant be replaced , made or improvised. Would appreciate you keeping an eye out for such treasures. Also looking for a pair of Needle Ham Std props (the same as go on the DC3) , 1820-F or G series engines and any DC2 or DC3 spares that may be hanging around ! I can be contacted on [email protected] . Much appreciate your help - one day we will see a third DC-2 in the air.
