FOX 049 WANTED

All this talk about the Scientific hollow-log airplanes has really sprred my interest in them and I am seeking to buy an old Fox 049. If anyone has one, please contact me offline at [email protected]
I promise I am looking for this engine to use and not to resell on ebay. I also promise to take very good care of it. Thank you for any help with my quest.

Thanks for the info. I am now the "high bidder", though the reserve has not been met.

Randall Hopkins at H&R Engines, bought out the entire Fox stock and sells NEW engines assembled from Fox parts. Randall is a good guy, try him. A new 049 is $50, so don't go nuts on the Ebay engine!!

These are the same ones Virginia HS sells.

I am taking everyone's advice and getting a Fox 049 from both Hobbysports (Henry is very helpful) and also from Randall, directly. In fact, he is providing exactly what I wanted from his remaining parts for the fox 049s. He originally bought 800 pounds of fox parts; has sold 600 to date, and is still selling them. Also, he is very good to work with.

Leonard, as far as I am concerned, I am a happy camper and through with this thread. Thank you for providing the service.

My quest for a Fox 049 has ended. I now own 3!
I got the one on ebay= $22.51, and I purchased one from Virginia Hobbysports, and one from H&R -- Randall--the guy that is selling off the last of fox 049 engines/parts. He still has some and Virginia Hobbysports does also.

I'm happpy. Now to build some hollow-log models for them...
