Aeronca ??? dashboard on auction at ebay

Post by Matt »

Can anyone identify this part? Could this be from a C-3?

The seller says, it is an Aeronca aircraft panel with a data plate attached to it. The data plate reads: Serial number 9044AE, Model P11SAAE. Why he believes that this is an Aeronca part, I don't know.

And here is the link to the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... =p3907.m32

Matt,

I have emailed with the seller and asked for more photos, and none have come along so far.

Never seen a part like that on any Aeronca I have seen but who knows.

The riddle is solved:

The seller has emailed me, saying that the dashboard was from an Aeronca-built PT-19. Probably, the buyer knew and told him, after the auction had ended. A google search brings up this photo, which confirms his statement.
