I knew you guy would get it!! It is a Phantom. I have never seen or heard about one before, and like I said, it's really growing on me. I was completely wrong about the time frame. Jim must have been a bit ahead of his time for the mid wing platform? or there are probably more like this from that period I haven't seen yet.
The OS 91 was also modified by a Bill Collins.
The plane is located in Ga. It seems like there has been, and is, a lot of interest in classic pattern out there.

From the pictures, the plane does look like it was built very well. I really like engine cut out. Nice and clean.

Jim is the seller of this particular bird. I did get a response back this morning stating that the history is quite long. He suggest that I email my phone number and we'll talk about it. Cant wait.

Is there Any plane that you guys haven't heard of?
