I bought this wing from a real C-119 "flying boxcar" (i think nameplate said 1953 mfg) a few years back. Had plans to re-polish or paint it military green, Add some pin-up style bomber art, some LED can lights and mount to the ceiling of the man cave. Like many projects, It never happened. My friends have suggested i plant it out front as a business sign or address marker, maybe build in a mailbox, add legs for a coffee table, use as a dividing wall for the water closet, etc.

11-12 ft long, 4 ft and 2 ft at the ends, 6-7" thick. One guy can lift and I moved it in a 8 ft pickup bed.

Thinking of letting one of the other crazy inmates run with it.

I paid near a grand for it (probably too much , but I WANTED it :) ). If interested, make me an offer ($$) or trade me for something just as off the wall that "Followed you home".
Thanks for looking,
Pat

It is in Big River (near Parker) if you want to see it.
