[li] Capsitrano.[/li]
[li] Concentra.[/li]
[li] Delta III. [/li]
[li] Metropolitan.[/li]

It is also worth noting that I am willing to tackle a restoration project, so long as the price is reasonable...

I have a 3 Speed Panama in Oil Rubbed Bronze. I know you're looking for Brushed Nickel I don't know if that helps you anywhere with maybe removing the painted finish and so forth but just putting it out there.

I figured that. Thought I'd just offer. Its odd in all of my Fan hunting, I never come across anything in Brushed Nickel despite how common it is. The more I think of it I don't think I've ever owned a Brushed Nickel Fan.
I'll keep my eyes out though for you!

Believe it or not, brushed nickel is immensely popular on the West Coast. In fact, if I had to guess, 70 to 75 percent of ceiling fans installed in my area installed over the last five years are brushed nickel...it is simply one of those strange idiosyncrasies in these parts  Nevertheless, thank you for keeping an eye out guys! |

Ask People who frequently go to the habitat to pick up fans for you, I have seen a few Nickel Panamas and Fans in Dan N.'s Videos.

Personally, none so far, and if I spot one, most likely I would end up keeping it. The only nickel fans I have seen in ReStores are in youtube videos, and many collectors don't pick them up because they are... new. |

Thank you Brian! Hopefully they are willing to ship... No problem! Just to mention, pay a little more than what they ask for, which will convince them to ship. Also send them the shipping labels. |

I know, Max, you have already seen this but I personally think that the fan looks better with Metropolitan brackets than it does its own; and just to mention the metropolitan brackets knock the blade span to 52" from 53". denver.craigslist.org/hsh/5619145179.htmlPricey metropolitan: www.ebay.com/itm/CASABLANCA-52-METROPOLITAN-BRUSHED-NICKEL-INTELLI-TOUCH-Ceiling-Fan-HR-6445Z-/140861044472?hash=item20cbf8f6f8:g:keYAAOxy7S5SDCV3Pricey Panama: www.ebay.com/itm/Casablanca-50-Panama-Brushed-Nickel-Intelli-Touch-Control-Ceiling-Fan-HR-6645T-/141998651109?hash=item210fc776e5:g:lBQAAOSw-QBXPixyPanama halos are the uplight-equipped versions of the Panama XTR, which was originally meant to replace the standard Panama but was discontinued quickly after, with the standard Panama put back in place. The halo variant was around until around 2014, when Casablanca was in the process of remodeling their Panama lineup. The XTR motor is a "skeletal spinner" motor, where the outer casing is the part that spins, unlike K55-type motors, but the outer casing allows access into the motor. XTR Panamas had thicker motor housings than their XLP counterparts, due to the XTR having a taller stack height. XTR Panamas also came with blade brackets pitched at a steep 20°, unlike the 15° the XLP version had, and moved about 300 CFMs more than the standard XLP despite the greater pitch (the XTR is a more powerful motor), and oddly, the XTR had the 4/5 blade option. However, the XLP makes up for that by being much quieter during operation, due to having a flywheel instead of the blades being mounted straight to metal. Here's one, it is on the steep side of pricing though: www.ebay.com/itm/Casablanca-6645F-Panama-Ceiling-Fan-Motor-NO-BLADES-4-Speed-NEW-OPEN-BOX-/311440913727?hash=item488353353f:g:8jQAAOSwHmhV7pJl |
