Default Unknown Cox piston/rod??

I have come across some of these really old Cox .049 piston/rod setups with the funky balljoint/clipped in rigging. The weird thing with this one is that the rod is ALUMINUM unlike any I have seen so far. Just thought when I think I have seen it all there is always something new. Just thought i'd share this picture....


.....yes Bob this is out of one of your engines!!!!!

Later,
Tim

I have some as well.. and if anyone need one for rebuilding an old original Cox let me know...

I mean, let AJC know about it, as he is most interested in making your dreams of a totally stock original Cox 049 come true!!!

AJC has many old cox parts and AJC will NOT tolerate ANY friendly RCU 1/2A member's engine be without the proper AND ORIGINAL components!! AJC will not accept any payment other than pistachio nuts (and ONLY the good kind) as well!!

AJC has to go back to work now as lunch time is over...
