Engine is a Kroma 180.

Nice job saving that baby from the dump. How long did the resurrection take?
About 3 months, lots of BS CA, had the cowl, canopy and wheel pants painted at a local body shop. The canopy and gear survived, but had to buy new cowl. Covered in metallic blue monokote. accomplished the necessary mods while rebuilding. Has not flown yet. Hardest thing on rebuild was creating custom jigs to assure alignments of everything. One wing was totally smashed, but luckily found another ($50) hanging around a local hobby store.
