Default HOME FOR O.S. 160 TWIN

Greetings to all:
Hi I have an o.s. 160 twin that needs a home. I have my heart set on a cessna 188 agwagon, but have had no success in finding a kit, or ARF of this airplane that will accept this engine. I would prefer a kit! I live in Colo. springs Co. 6100' alt. so i'm thinking probably a 120 size would be in the right size range. Do any of you have an idea of where I may find a kit of this airplane in this size?
Thanks for any help

Have you looked at the Dave Patrick Super Cub? It would be a nice fit in there.

Why not get some plans and have the kit lazer cut ? That way you can get the plane you want and if need be, have the size "adjusted" to your needs.

[8D]Consider the Sig Spacewalker II kit. It's a perfect fit. A great engine for a great aircraft.

I am intrigued by campy's suggestion. I already have a super cub or that would be a definate consideration. A space walker, possible. but I really want a crop duster. Some other possibilities are an Aries thrush or the Grumman, but I don't know of anyone making a 120 size kit of these either. So I think I will check out Campy's idea, but keep looking for a kit of the agwagon as well. No hurry. Thanks for your help $ircra$halot
