P-47 parts? (1 Viewer)

Hoping the community could help identify the propellers and parts I have acquired.My little research seems that these parts came from a P-47 Thunderbolt.Any help would be appreciated...Thanks Shannon

Yes, the "tooth pick" blade DWG No. C2721200 was used with the P-47C, D, G & K for the 12ft. 2in Curtiss Electric prop with the hub C542S-A34. The prop blade could be used with the DWG No. 714-1C2-12 interchangeably. The rest of the pieces doesn't look like the P-47 stuff.

Instrument panel is not P-47. The 3 legged parts are most likely helicopter stuff.

Really appreciate your input. Did they produce any of the P-47 s with 3 propellers only ? Missing the hub and would love to set up

Do you mean the 3-blade propeller for the P-47?

If you do .. nope the P-47 had the 4-blade props mounted. The P-43 Lancer had the 3-blade one.

The P-47 props ...

12' 2" Curtiss Electric "tooth pick", blade N° 714 (B, C, D & G,)
12' 2" Curtiss Electric "tooth pick", blade N° C2721200 (a bit wider than 714) (B, C, D & G, K)

13' Curtiss Electric paddle blade prop with symmetrical blades P-47D-15 and also P-47M's and N's, blade N° 836
13'7/8" Hamilton Standard paddle blade prop fitted to P-47D22re/25re/27re, blade N° 6501
13' Curtiss Electric asymmetrical blades fitted to P-47D's, blade 6501A-D

12' 2" AO Smith asymmetrical blades fitted to P-47D's, blade N° SPA3
12' 2" AO Smith asymmetrical blades fitted to P-47D's, blade N° SPA5

these blades were not interchangeable always between them, according to the propeller hub

the propeller hub B,C,D & G could be fitted with blade N°714,(hub N° C542S-A4; C542S-A22, C542S-A34; C542S-A10)
Blade 836: hub C542S-A114 (D) and C642S-B40 (M & N)
Blade 6507 Hamilton: hub 24E50
for AO Smith blades, possible the hub C542S-A124, A-126, A-130, A-132.

Apologize for being so green to these parts.....I only have three propellers that came with everything pictured ( all have the # C2721200)...Are you saying I have a P-43 Lancer or do you believe I am missing one propeller and have a P-47?

Thanks for your feedback

The panel with the National Insignia on it also shows NAVY, agree most likely helicopter parts.
