Default Pattern Plane

I have for sale a pattern plane (66" wingspan) that I purchased a few years ago at an estate sale. The paint scheme caught my eye and I had visions of getting it in the air. Unfortunately, I am much to busy to try and finish the plane.

There are no manufacturer marking anywhere on the airframe and I do not know enough about pattern planes to venture a guess as to who made this plane. The engine appears to be a ~.60 size two-stroke. Base upon the way it is installed I am unable to see who the engine manufacturer is. However, on one side it does say, "Made in Austria." I'm not sure which manufacturer(s) produced engines in Austria. The muffler is rather interesting as you can see through the center of it. Based upon the lack of staining on the engine and an inspection of the airframe it appears that the previous owner never finished the plane and as such the motor has likely never been run. Also included are pneumatic retracts with a small air tank. However, there is no control valve for the retracts.

I'm asking $130 for the plane. I'd prefer local pickup. However, if you are willing to bear the cost, I'll have someone pack it and ship it to you. I don't gave much experience shipping already built aircraft and as such can't give you an estimate for that.
