Bar Nuthin 2,756 #1 Posted 4 hours ago My neighbor bought a C-121 Automatic that had previously been used as a mule at an airport. The hood has several warning stickers regarding safety checks when hooking to the plane. It has been fitted with some massive rear wheel hubs! At first, I thought they were repair hubs, but once removed the axles are in perfect condition. Anyone seen hubs like these before? 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll try to get some pictures of the hood decals - as well as the add-on hydraulics that were installed by a shop in Northern Indiana. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
