[quote=Though it appears now that backing plates may be even more rare then nose pants??
I've seen several sets of the different plates on eBay just this past year- you just have to know what you're looking at, as most sellers have no clue to the year/model they are selling.
What is almost impossible to find is the nose pant top cover, I made mine as I was unsuccessful in tracking one down.

I think we are finally making some sense out of this wheel pants question. I personally prefer the "long pointy" wheel pants over then newer blunt style. But finding brackets to fit those looks like it will be more of an ordeal then just finding a set that fits the aircraft properly. (By the way, Mr. Ed does have the nose gear.) I'll just keep my eyes and ears peeled and see what comes up.................
