Title: K&B .15 Greenhead backplate
Post by: Steve Lotz on March 01, 2025, 03:49:34 PM
I have everything needed to put this engine back together with the exception of the backplate. It is not the same as the .09. Does anyone have one in their junkbox?

   Hi Steve,
    I went through my "greenies" today and came across a parts engine that has the back plate, but is missing the drive washer, needle valve, and all the head screws are missing. Any interest in the whole engine or do you just want the back plate and screws? Send me a PM with an updated email address or a cell number that I can text photos to and get those to you.

  Type at you later,

So, you are the one that ended up with Marvin Denny's junk barrel?   That's good to know.

     I wish I had Marvin's Junk Barrel!! I think that thing must have been bottomless!! He would pull all kinds of stuff out of there, like rabbits out of a hat!! I wish I would have asked him if it was really a barrel or just a figure of speech!! I miss Marvin and all the guys of his era. I'm glad I  got to know and fly with some of them and they are missed.

Is it safe for us to say there's a "Dan's junk barrel?"  I think that is your calling now.
