1949A Nose Bowl
Time to start planning for a paint job and will need a new nose bowl. Mine has a cut out from where a previous owner had a pump or something. I see a few of the parts dealers offering blanks for 1946 120/140 and 140A models. Wondering if this is the best route or the best source. Any opinions

My guess is that anything new is coming from Univair.

Re: 1949A Nose Bowl
This one is currently on Ebay: "Cessna Cowling Nose P/N 0652302 New" ...don't know if that's an applicable part #(?) & may well be for another Cessna model. Ebay item # is 265823575029 & price is $195 + shipping. Pic looks OK, listed as "new". Even if it's the correct # I'd check with Univair as their price may be comparable + the add does mention "rivet holes have been drilled".

Re: 1949A Nose Bowl
Only if you stick a zero between the one and the nine...

I think that's off a 150 or 152. Doesn't look new to me, either...

Re: 1949A Nose Bowl
I would try to repair it or find a good body shop to do it for you.
