Default HP-18 project flown 1500 hours with trailer

Up for auction on ebay now is an HP-18 project. It has flown 1500 hours
but needs a complete rebuild. It NEEDS either wing contouring or use it
as a "quickbuild" kit for a Super-18 with the fuselage, tail, wing
spars and controls already built. Comes with a very good Gehrlein open
heavy duty trailer. Needs new trailer fittings for wings (the existing
are probably SGS-2-33 fittings). There is NO reserve and no fake
bidding BS on this auction. Photos are available, but I was not able to
put them up on ebay because their "revise item" page did not allow me
to put photos up. Photos available for serious bidders via e-mail. NO
RESERVE, high bid wins fair and square. This is a 5 day auction that
began on Thursday evening at about 6:30 PST. This is your chance to
have nearly AS-W20 performance at 1/10 the cost. Located Los Angeles.
Get off your e-butt and bid now.

I believe that this is the HP-18 that is listed on Ebay.

The L/D is much better when flown *without* the trailer.....
