I know the 120/140 wings and struts are different to the 140a wings and struts but will the 120 wings and struts fit on a 140a fuselage. It’s a rebuild project I’m just looking a current options ?
Thank
Will 120 wings fit a 140a fuselage?

Good question Martin, I suggest you contact David Lowe at Lowe Aviation in Kentucky (you can find his contact information on AirNav, look for 80KY). David has the knowledge to answer any of your questions pertaining to this subject.

Are you rebuilding a Cessna 140A and have damaged wings and are looking for replacement wings? The early Cessna 150 wings are a replacement. You do have to do some work in the flap area since the flaps are different. Feel free to call me at 770-361-0137 Earl Evans

Seems like you and I just had this conversation the other day Earl.

BTW, how did those drawings I sent you reprint?

I have a complete set of 140A wings (wings, ailerons, flaps, and tips). Very good condition. They will be for sale very soon. Send me a PM if interested.
