Hey Rob,
I got the plans just fine. That set must be out on the net somewhere. (Maybe Jon Finley's site?) Or maybe I bought them from some unscrupulous eBay seller back in the day.
At any rate, they aren't complete, and I don't think they have the plans to make the Q1 trailerable. [Oops! - I just re-read your post and found them after Chapter 7 - Sorry!]
Anyway, without further ado, I'll give you a link to a good copy of the original Q1 "Trailerable Plans" issued by QAC:
www.quickheads.com/free_samples/Quickie_Fuselage_Cut_Plans.pdf
I'll also add a link to them from the Resources link under the QBA TAB on the top menu of the site.
Of course, in order to see the updated version, you really should become a member of the Quickie Buidlers Association. You can do that for FREE if you contribute an article (with some pictures) for the newsletter. (That offer is open to everyone.)
The updated plans provided by Leon McAtee really fill in a lot of gaps left by QAC, and they cover some of the safety concerns not mentioned in the original plans.
Your membership support is always appreciated and I will continue to work hard to make it a good value for your $20!
OK. . . that's it for the sales pitch.
I hope this helps. Please let me know.
Cheers,

Yes, I did get them off the net but I have no idea where, it was years ago. Glad you found that section I mentioned. It matches what I had when the full plans were here, but I'd be interested to read Leon's update. If you look at Chapter 17 you'll see that the full engine installation details for the Onan are there too.
Ah, the sales pitch! I've been putting everything I know here in the public forum so that it's readily available to anyone. Writing a newsletter article assumes I know something about the build process, and since I haven't yet built one I don't think I have the required credibility. Nor can I spare $20 for annual membership, unfortunately ... times have been tough here too.
I see you finally hit 100 posts, hope you gave yourself a t-shirt. I'm not far behind you!
