Hal:

I attached a copy of one of the old ads from a 1930's mag for the Parasol
and a couple pictures of the one we restored and have on display here at the Western North Carolina Air Museum.
Flyable and has a 1940's Military 170-7 Continental Engine
Photos of the full rebuild are on our facebook page.
If you want to check them out just go to www.facebook.com/westernnorthcarolinaairmuseum (http://www.facebook.com/westernnorthcarolinaairmuseum)

Btw, $199.00 in 1930 dollars is $2,733.47 in 2012 currency.

Still a helluva deal!

...and he didn't tell us how much one could build a Heath using WoW gold.

:P
