We have done just over 100hr since the rebuild and enjoying every minute. Annual inspection coming up soon and will be upgrading the instruments a bit. Old vacuum stuff out and fitting a Garmin G5

AH did not like the upside down stuff to much, so must repair or replace. My RV was build with steam gauges so the G5 fits easy in the panel
