I must admit that no one attempted to discourage me from starting a project. I'm happy for that. To tell the truth, after all the main issue is that I'll build it here in Italy. If I were in the USA I could take advantage of some chances to get the right wood, to trade some material with other

Now that the Stang is at the airport I swept out the garage today and rolled the KR back in. I can't wait to start getting to work on the new wing and the Grove gear conversion. I need to get the Revmaster started and get it all lubed up again. Is there anything special I need to do to the turbo
