Just posting this for fun. It’s not often we see great photos of a Thorp T-18. This was just posted on a Facebook group and I thought WOW! what a great shot of a neat airplane! I don’t know Jack squat about aluminum sheet metal but I believe these are somewhat simple to build? Pop riveted? Going from memory I’m probably wrong. Anyhow, hope you like this it sure is a looker!
