WANTED: Aristo Doodlebug Roof Vent (?)

For Sale/Trade/Wanted
#1

Looking for a part off of anyones crashed/based/scrapped or otherwise disassembled Aristocraft Doodlebug.

At the top, front of the railcar on the roof there is a curved/fluted box - about 1.5" x 1.5" in size. I think this is a grill, vent, or some other air-exchanger… not sure what, just know I need 2 or 3 of them for an unrelated 1:20 project. (More on that later)

If anyone has a spare or two, I’m very interested in acquiring them!

Thanks!
Josh (aka PD)

EDIT: According to Aristo - this is Part ID “212XX-10 Radiator” - though I can’t seem to order it from them.

#2

I will have to look

#3

I think you sent the parts to me Marty, I may have them someplace.

#4

I remember converting the car into a private obs car, but its been awhile.

#5

Good lord… there may be hope yet?! :slight_smile: I figured this was a long, long, LONG shot at best!

#6

Josh, Here is what I have, email me with your address and I’ll get them off to you, if you want them. If you have any Pacific/Mikado linkages to trade, I’d like whatever you have.

Jerry, If josh doesn’t need the orange(red?) and yellow part that has “M.182” printed on it, I have an idea that I could use it for.

Hi Jerry!! Wow - that’s it! I can’t believe my eyes! I’m sorry I don’t have any pacific parts - anything else you’re hunting? (Address on its way!)

Jason - all I was hunting was the vent and the four screws that attach it to the roof - anything else is fair game as far as I’m concerned. :slight_smile:

Jason,
Email me your address.

#10

Jerry, got the message about shipping, are you looking for anything specific re the pacific, or just parts in general?

#11

If no Pacific/Mikado drive stuff, maybe some detail parts?

#12

What kind of pacific/mikado parts do you need Jerry. I have several boxes of parts from left over unfinished projects that I want to clean out? Plus I have 2 new Mikado drive units I want to get rid of.

Chuck, any chance you could start a thread of your own with a few pics of what you have available?

#14

Hey J.D. I will try in the next few days as I am recovering from shoulder surgery and don’t have much movement yet.
