I am looking for a pair of Cessna window latches. The cam over style.
Thanks Gary

If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

Gary, how you be?

Have you tried Buckeye Air Parts in Middleton, ID (at Hubler Field). Linda might have them or know where to get em.

Re: WTB Cessna window latches

Hey Pat
Things are good

Barnstormer
No, not that type. They are a folding/unfolding style that attach to the window and wndow sill to hold open when in the unlatched position.
They are what I believe would be most common on early 180/182/175/172/170 etc.

Hey Terry
Yes, I bought a '52 170B/180hp Avcon conversion and am very happy with it and starting to personalize it.
I have put he baggage door in, pulled out quite a bit of weight. Have the 180 wheels aft gear on the way.
Will be stripping the paint, extended baggage, windshield wire brace kit, LR fuel?, JPI monitors, double pucks, bigger prop

And the Chubster is still for sale if anyone is looking for a good performing, fun economical cub type plane.

Gary.

:That is the one :shock: , but, there is no way I can spend over $300.00 for one of those, and I need 2.

Re: WTB Cessna window latches

Hate to step on your post but I am in need of the type that Barnstormer posted. ANyone got a spare or old one laying around. Mine broke where the little roll pin goes through it. I went to the local auto/airplane salvage yard and got one that currently works. It was off an old Ford pick-up vent window. Works for now but am still looking for an original.

Re: WTB Cessna window latches

Unfortunately, that's what they are likely to cost.....good luck finding used ones in decent condition. Check the salvage yards, but those guys know what they're worth.

Congrats on the new 170B Gary! I'm glad you found a good one.
