My Champ was a FC also 1957 or 58 SS# 219. I think that nearly all have been converted. I do alot of flying off grass and don't use wheel pants. Do you have the "no bounce gear"?

Wag or ACSpruce if you don't mind fiberglass. Might even call American Champion; ask for Mick, he's a shop foreman but has a 7AC.

I fly off grass alot too. Wheel pants save ALOT of mud on the underside of the wing which is tough to clean off and a real bother. I also think the airplane looks alot better. I don't really get the big tire fad but would if I were in the wilds of alaska I guess. I think they look weird on a small airplane. (only my humble opinion.) JP
