Now it was time for the Frankenwulfer to visit a beautyfarm to get some makeup in form of a thick coat of primer.

All in all it dosen't look to bad. Hours of filling and sanding have paid off.

During drying times I did the engine cowl minus the flaps.

The underside looks ready too.

Back on the road.
Three months ago my V32 had an accident. I tumbled over a carelessly layed about cable and smashed the bird on the edge of my desk. 80% write off! The cowl and parts from the tail were the only things I could save.
I was really pissed off and wanted to give up the V32. At least after much grumble I started from zero once more and the bird is back on my desk augmented with a four blade prop, exhausts and cowlflaps. Have to watch the floor carefully in future.

Good to know you've managed to save it Michael. Got to watch those floors and cable - they can sneak up on you when you least expect it!
 
Time goes by. Decided to make a new cowling for a little better looking. New cowl has more depth an nicer cowlflaps. First color is aplied too.

I decided to put a "G-Lader" airintake on my V32. Sadly there is no photographig evidence of it.

I will go to Lübeck City for some recreation at the sea. Will be back in a week so this is the last posting for some time. Added the elevators and landing flaps.
