I just about have the plane the way I like it. I can pick it apart and find things to fix but in general it came out very nice.
If I were to pick, I would repaint the cowl and pants as I did it when it was raining and they turned out less than glossy.
I found that my motor offset was way off, I used washers and did not measure. I just lined it up to the cowl and I found that Goldberg had put the cross hairs wrong on the firewall by 3/16" so lining up the cowl gave me 8 degrees insead of the 2 degrees recommended. I have remounted the engine and it loops much better now.
I have included the most recent pictures and here is a list of parts.
