This blog documents my first attempt to restore a vintage aircraft back to it´s original US Army style. This bird was built in Lock Haven (PA) with Piper s/n 13157. Delivered to Army Ground Forces in France late December 1944 (mil. s/n is 45-4417). Still trying to find in which division it served, but this bird probably served the allies on their march towards- and into Germany. Rolled out in June 2015 with maiden flight shortly after.

Second engine startup
Delighted to see how easy the engine started the next day (second time started). Warmed it for about 10 minutes. Will repeat this a few times before I hand the engine over to the local mechanic. I think it might look better inside after some regular use.
