No, sadly his head of hair is all synthetic. Didn't want to put THAT much of a personal touch on the plane. The engine standoffs that I made are just pieces of 7/8" hardwood dowel rod from Lowes that are cut to the proper length. I then drilled a hole through the center of each. I used blindnuts behind the firewall and had to get longer mounting bolts than are included with the kit -- 1-1/2" if I remember right. One of the mounts will interfere with the triangle stock on the face of the firewall, but I just made a notch in it for the mount. Nothing too tricky, as I didn't want to invest too much time an effort in an ARF. The G26 is an easy engine to set up a cowl for. I just removed the muffler, spark plug, and carb and it fit totally inside of the cowl. I then just used a grease pencil to mark out the spots that needed to be cut and there you go. The velocity stack solves the problem of operating the choke--now I just use my finger over the end rather than the mechanical choke.
