Does anyone know about the location, condition, availability, of the original fuselage damaged in a rock pile possibly owned by a joe conn, of serial number 7? Number seven is currently located in alaska, with a replacement fuse from 1967. Just wondering.

According to my notes, and an ad in The Bungee Cord, Winter 2003-2004, it
belongs to Fred Pech, in Parma, Ohio. He has the fuselage that was sort
of pieced back together but not structurally repaired, new landing gear,
one tail surface destroyed, the other damaged. Also has the aft fuselage
(about the last 6 feet) and tail for an SH-1 that he got from Art
Zimmerman. Contact info available through ssa.org. Under the name of
Manfred Pech.

When I last spoke with him (5 years ago), he said he would take $500 for
it all.

Hey, Dave. It hasn't sold yet, so it is not too late for me! :-)

Great to fly with you again, too. And that Antares looks awesome blowing
past my old, thick winged 604 at Warp Speed! Maybe if I get Blue Fin
going, we can meet somewhere and have Whale Races!
