My dad owned this aircraft for several years in the early 70's. We had a lot of fun flying it around southern California. I'd like to know where it is today!

I owned this A/C for 13 years. I added the Maule tailwheel (a great story), painted it twice, tried to do fabric work on it, had the carberator replaced. I made a living with it for 3 years giving tailwheel checkouts and primary instruction. I flew it in a TV show "Flight Plan" for Family Film Studios. It was truly a member of our family.
