| Looking to be pointed in the right direction, I have just purchased a Matchbox Collectible 2001 P-40 Warhawk, my 5 year old son decided to take it for a test flight and crash landed it. I am in need for a new propellar for this plane. Anyone know if this is somthing I can get ? | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repair Parts for a P-40 ? Very doubtful unless someone has a junker they'll part with, as Matchbox has discontinued this line.... If it's a clean break, careful re-attaching with superglue should do the trick. I have fixed a few sheared off props this way and no one would ever even be able to tell where the break line was. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repair Parts for a P-40 ? Thanks for the feedback, I will go the super glue route for now. The other question I have is I currently have 2 P-40s MB planes one has a serial number under the wing and the other plane has "Dinky" typed under the wing, is the Dinky plane later release (2004) ? I'm kinda new at this collection, I started collecting these planes about 3 weeks ago, many of them i have purchased on Ebay I have about 10 planes now. My original P-40 that has the broken prop is the only one that i purchased at a discount store back in 2001. I was able to pick up a platium first series P-40 last week for $17.00 which i thought was a decient price. The first time I saw these planes at Target about 6 years ago I new they would be a good item to pick up and collect. The P-47s and Zero seem to be very hard to find and they are going for the upper 40s for price when you do find one. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Repair Parts for a P-40 ? If you don't mind spending a little money and doing a little work, maybe you could buy a plastic 1/72 P-40 model kit and use the prop and spinner from that... | |||||||||||||
