cema_ga Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hi! I am build now late Canberra T.17 in Hemp color (WD955). I believe the wheel wells must be black-gray. But I saw also silver colored wheel wells. Any chance that they are not black-gray? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xvtonker Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 You can actually paint them in either black or gloss white. Canberras wheel wells were painted white during major servicing. Before that they were black. XVTonker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canberra kid Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Yes unfortunately none of the resin seats out there are quite right, the best 2cs was the Aeroclub seat unfortunately they have now gone.

I know that when I was stationed at RAF Wyton in the late 70's we had T.4's, T.17's, PR.7's & PR.9's and you could find wheel wells in all three colour!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
