Default Need Help Identifying Extra

Does anybody know the manufacturer of this composite Extra? Fuse is 73 inches long as it sits. All stabs and wings are sheeted and finished, has wing tube and stab tube plus gear and wheel pants, one has a chunk missing. I have no hardware and no plans or instructions. I’d like to put a fair price on what I have. So any info would be appreciated. Thanks

That looks like an Extra that was kitted maybe 20 years ago- it was flown in the TOC by one of the German flyers- Gunther Hoppe or Peter Wessels? I am pretty sure it was kitted in Germany... Trying to remember the details... seems like he flew it on a G-62 with a pipe.

I did a little digging and I'm pretty sure this plane was actually designed by Peter Erang and flown in the 1994 TOC. He did have a piped G62 in it. I recognized it because I think I have a DVD of that TOC and recognized the plane. Here is an article of that TOC and picture of Peter and the plane.
