RE: oldtimer with igition engine?
Nothing more majestic than a Buccaner with a Brown Jr. 
What do you have engine wise or will you need to purchase something? Just for fun or maybe some SAM competition at some point?
The Ohlsson 60's are plentiful enough and provide enough power for many old timers- Sal Taibi's Powerhouse is great airplane & not that hard to build.
Quakers are popular but (IMHO) pretty ugly, the Miss America is a nice cabin job. Lots's of good choices, check out the SAM website or Klarich custom kits for some examples.

Sorry, but My original Brown Jr, serial #11140 is not for sale, its scheduled for one of my Flying Quakers. best bet is EBAY. also have my original Baby Brown, serial# 79Z17.both are free and ready to run, after I find the fuel tanks in one of the antique parts box's. dick
