Hi all - I've been restoring a 1951 Super Chipmunk for the past 3 years. I posted about it a couple of years ago but it has progressed a good bit since then. I've enjoyed reading people's building and restoration logs (and learned plenty that I've been able to apply to my own project) so figured I'd reciprocate. The airplane has an unusual history in the UK, Australia and US as a trainer, crop duster, glider tug and airshow performer. I've pretty much stripped it down, and the major pieces are now going back together.

I'd love to get comments on various parts of the project. Lots of folks don't use social media like Facebook but even without an account you can still see everything by drilling down on photos>albums>click the picture for the story. Thanks to all! Mark
