Joined association a couple weeks ago. Good peeps. Asked question. No hard responses.Get with the association. Some folks really helped me out getting in and finding a good bird. The good news is with a solid pre-buy these old gals are great. They are fun, nimble, capable if respected... they’ll start a conversation at every gas pump and a hellova value...
Good look at the gearbox, door posts, axles if they are still hollow, gear leg step holes need to be inspected for corrosion and cracks... those are a few model specific things I’d make sure whomever looks it over gives a double check to. Certainly not an exhaustive list.

Found one. Reputable fellow a 120/140 club member put me on to.
With that tail number is it a ‘48 model? I have 2414V which is a ‘48. Lots of subtle little improvements on a ‘48.
Is she still a ragwing.
