I agree with Speed, I think it is an old Bridi AMA pattern type. Folks forget he did have a few glass fuselage ships for a period.

The Webra is almost certainly a Webra Speed 61, My last Speedy (a 120) I just retired several years ago from a 120 Ultrastick Lite. Is it side or rear exhaust and does it have pipe header?

I am not sure about the exhaust?.. this plane is a wing and a fuselage or airframe in separate pieces.. there is no engine, no landing gear no canopy, but will be selling it, since I have to get rid of the storage unit rent and it has to go... it is so big that would be hard to ship these 2 pieces.. thought maybe if not restorable it could make a good "sample" for building new planes from

OK Sorry I thought you also had the engine. If that picture is of your ship then indeed it is a prime restoration project as well as a desirable one that someone will want. List it here at RCU.

I have shipped airplanes that size USPS pacel post for about 25.00. Heck I'd do an instant Paypal transaction of 100.00 to get it to my garage.
