Have you ever thought of a Pietenpol? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Jim, It's not that it hasn't been thought of but more that a Piet is addressing an entirely different 'mission.' The VP1 is a single-place, VW-powered machine that can be built for a fraction of the price of a Piet. The Pietenpohl is a two-place battleship (1" sq longerons!) designed to be powered by an engine from a Model A Ford. Even when powered by something else it is a LONG way from a minimum-cost machine.
