Well today I finally got out to the hangar where I now have her stored. the owner showed up with her deceased husband's brother in law, the first owner of the aircraft - we talked for about a half an hour - told me he flew the airplane from Connecticut to Colorado! Anyway after they left it was getting a little late, didn't want to start anything that time consuming so I threw about a half of gallon of gas in her and fired her up!!!!

Hope to have the wings on within the next two weeks!

Alright! Must have sounded great when you started her up!

To me that was the best sound in the world when you had a broke or torn apart aircraft and I helped rebuild or repair her. When that engine started for the first time, it was such a cool feeling!
 
TODAY WAS A MILESTONE!!!! Wings on and we taxied it - no longer a Penguin!
