This is a fishing expedition:
My glider club, St. Louis Soaring, has a 1955 super cub. About 2 years ago our mechanic took the wings and engine off and sent the fuselage to Dakota Cub where the backend was replaced. The fuselage now looks beautiful. The mechanic has since changed employers and it is has become apparent that he will never get the plane back together. So we are looking for somebody, preferably in the midwest, who can get it back together and flying again.
I believe that the scope of the project is covering the fuselage and reassembly.
Does anyone know of any good shops that might be able to get this done? It seems like the kind of work a good shop would want. More money for a longer term project.
Any help would be appreciated.
