Default Can you identify this plane?

Got it at an auction the other day. Looks like a Wagstaff Extra, but I cannot find the manufacturer for the life of me. It is not the Great Planes kit, or the World Models ARF. Servo locations don't match up in either manual.

Wing span is 64 1/2". Trim colors and scheme matches another Wagstaff Extra I saw, but I haven't seen another like it in my searches, so it might not even be a Wagstaff.

Wing is epoxied together and glassed.

The foamy glue on the stringers across the top of the fuse lead me to believe it might be a kit, but someone else mentioned it could be ARF hot glue or something.

Thanks for any help! I'm getting a little desperate trying to figure this out.

Edit: I know the engine mounts are too close together. I'll be changing that.

I think that may be an earlier version of the Graupner Extra 300, with a slightly differant trim.

It does look very similar, but my plane is a 60 size for sure. Also the servo mounts don't match up, among other things. Thanks very much for the response!
