Your help would be greatly appreciated ..... (-) (^^)

Thanks for your time and effort.

yo -- sorry not been looking on this forum for a while --

The drains are available, and are made by Curtis - they are PROPER drains, not these cheap things with rubber O-rings that fail every second day.

I source them from a friend of mine who is doing some work on my Navion, his name is Scott 074 444 three nine 7 three pricing I paid a while back was around R400.00 each - but put an end to my drain problems permanently
