Does anyone have a single set or even a pair for sale? I also need a support bracket.

RV-8 wheel pants

I have a pair of RV-8 wheel pants painted Beautiful Doll silver with hand molded pants to gear leg fairings already there.

These are the original pants made with fiberglass resin, and are a little heaver than the current epoxy resin wheel pants. I was given a defective pair of epoxy resin pants and took on the challenge of fitting them, surfaceing them, molding the pants to gear leg fairings, and of course painting them Beautiful Doll silver.
I kept the originals as a ready to go spare set. Make me an offer I can't refuse!
 
Thanks for the offer. I'm certain someone else out there may need them. I ordered and received a set from Vans.
One thing I discovered is that the new gear leg fairings have a longer chord now, by about 1/2 inch from my circa 2007 kit.
