It is really my desire to rebuild and fly this one since I never got to fly it. I know it can be rebuilt, so I am looking for guidance. Any assistance or ideas on rebuiliding given will be much appreciated.

Yeeep! My vote is fix her up. Don't forget to check the center of gravity once you've added repairs to the tail...

I came home one day to find my wing rack had "collapsed" and I was thinking "what the heck!". After a little more investigation it turns out the neighbor's cat got locked in the garage and tried to escape through the window via the "wing ladder" Oh well, it happens. I'm pretty sure my troubles are over for the rest of the year!
