Our EAA chapter will be taking in a Great Lakes carcass. You guessed it, Grandpa passed away and the kids found the fuselage and engine, but not a scrap of paperwork.

Fuselage frame intact. No wings or struts. CASA Tigre engine (inline, similar to Gipsy). Don't have the photos yet.

No idea of the value yet. It ain't a Staggerwing, but it's also a 90 year old historical artifact that will fly. And the Lakes flies very well indeed.
