Cox Engine of The Month
My latest buy.
Page 1 of 1
My latest buy.
I picked this up off of eBay last week. A lightly used Sure Start.
I was the only bidder at $15.00 so it came to me. I guess everyone figured $15 was too much for a used Sure Start. At least I was hoping people would think that when I bid on it. In fact, *I* wouldn’t pay $15 for a used Sure Start. But, ever since I saw one, I’ve wanted one of those Sure Start tank mounts. I was hoping no one else would notice or care. I’m not sure how much they hold, but I’m guessing about as much as a Babe Bee tank. I’ll be at the hobby shop on Friday, so I’ll pick up a small syringe and see how much goes in the tank.
Does anyone know what planes used these tank mounts?

Re: My latest buy.
I don't know about the tank, but I still think this was a good buy for $1.
It hasn't arrived yet, but for $1, who wouldn't add it to the collection?

Mark, I have one of those tanks too. I was looking at it a couple of days ago. I think it is a really good set up, and am going to put it on a profile/slab wing plane. I am interested to know how much that tank holds, so I will wait to hear back from you. I am guessing it is a little less than a baby bee tank. Andy

TANKS Mark! I learned something today. Never knew SureStarts had a add-on tank.
Who had picture #9 in this months EOM? they had a basketfull of SS. It'll be like Where's Waldo, lookin' at that picture trying to find the one with a tank!

A tank mount, now that's one thing I didn't know was around. Wouldn't mind one of those either. I'm dying to put my modded sure start on my 1/2A skyray and try it out. (Bandit)batjac wrote:I picked this up off of eBay last week. A lightly used Sure Start.
