Need some help identifying these planes
 
Hey there, picked up a load of planes from an auction and still have a few that i cant figure out what they are. hoping some of you could help me there.

This second one, im really just wondering if i could get any money for it by selling. im not big into this style, and im not sure i would know where to start to finish it. but am still curious as to its name.

im not sure if these pictures show this one well, so if different angles or whatever would help, them i would be more than happy to post them.

thanks

Could be wrong but I think the first one is some sort of scale aerobatic plane maby an Extra. The Second looks like a profle scale combat plane. As for finishing the second model dope and tissue or monokote would do fine.

First one, an Extra 260 looks pretty old & built with overweight construction. The second one is trash.. It looks like there is even mold growing in the wood. Is that a control line airplane?

The second one MIGHT be one of the old Sig Kwik-built kits, either the Chipmunk or the Mustang - I think the wingspans were around 60" or so. These featured profile fuselages with ABS plastic shells to give them a full-fuselage shape. THey also had a Cessna in that series - but this obviously is not one of those!

I think they went out of production in the late 1980's or early 1990's or thereabouts. Doubt you could get the shells anymore, but Sig might have the plans available - could be finished off as a profile sport model.

No offense but there is not much there. I'd hang up as retro decor.
