'Barry,
The lines from the tank are rubber slipped on to the alum lines.
Not much left in the Mooney stock. Last time I was there, a couple of old wings and misc parts. I maintain the FC CD ROM for the club. Let me know if you want.
Call me any time on the Cell.

Hello, this is my first posting to your group. I am with the Commemorative
Airforce in Camarillo, CA. We are restoring a 1947 F24R46. I have many
questions, but I will start with an easy one, how do the two fuel lines from the
selector valve attach to the two lines coming from the gas tank? Are they "hard"
connections or do they use a rubber hose over beaded aluminum lines? Does
anyone out there have a spare "C" spring for the glove compartment door? Does
anyone know whatever happened to the F24 parts inventory from Mooney Brothers?
This e-mail has the CAF address, but if you have an answer for me please send it
the barryplusfour@yahoo.com Thank you, Barry
