Default Where's the glue?

I crunched my plane while landing and decided to rebuild the wing instead of just buying one and also install flaps. It's a World Models Paulistina. I took most of the covering off and started to remove the damaged parts of wood and discovered that there was virtually no glue on at least 1/2 of the ribs. This was not from the crash, there was no glue. When putting an ARF together, I always epoxy what I can get to before assembly but was surprised at what I found hidden in the wings. Might do a scratch build next time.
