Bolton Paul Defiant Tail wheel(pg1 U/C)

Here we have a tail wheel for the Bolton Paul Defiant  The wheel is in good condition and the tyre is inflated.

Click on the picture's to enlarge.

The long period which passed between the first conception of the Defiant turret fighter and its operational acceptance impaired its usefulness. The delays in production, which resulted in only three aircraft being delivered before the outbreak of war, meant that it could not be used in 1940 in its originally planned role-that of standing defensive patrols and was forced into action as an interceptor alongside the Spitfire and Hurricane.

Spitfire Chassis Valve block (pg1 UC)

Click on the valve block pictures to enlarge them.

This is an Original Spitfire Chassis selector valve block. Its in relic condition but is superb for static use. This part is as rare as any Spitfire part gets, it 100% original. It is surplus to requirements released from our Mk VIII project. You can see in the top left picture the unit it was removed from. Because of the steel frame of our replica the valve cannot be located and so it was removed and put on sale to aid our projects. The valve block is shown below in exploded drawings of the chassis selector.
