Dang Paul,
I feel for ya, brotha!
Still, my thoughts...for that kind of money you could've had N63363 and it's on your home field in Tallahassee with 2200 hrs. on it, a brand new engine, prop overhaul, and new avionics. Sounds like The Wizard of Oz, huh?
Keep a look-out for cracks in the 3-piece McCauley wheels which are on it too!!
Stripper from the paint job still remains in some of the wing ribs. Not a problem, but they recommend spraying the entire guts with anti corrosive. (Is this something I should do?)
You may want to get some paint on top of the flaps (just above their leading edges) when they're extended before you corrosion treat it. Once it's done there's no going back and paint won't stick.
