Andy,
 
Reference the 1946 Ercoupe being sold at auction tomorrow at 10am in
Meriden Kansas, just Northeast of Topeka, Ks.   (Phone number of
785-484-2281).
 
I called the guy (Jerry) today and was told that it had been in the barn
about 25 years.  It has about 1000 hrs showing in the logs but he thinks
another 500 hours may have been flown and not logged.  He and his brother
or son or some other family member bought it in about 1954, but they
bought another airplane shortly after.  When the coupe went out of annual
they just never flew it again.  The tires are flat and none of the AD's
have been done after about 1954.  The wings are metal.  Apparently they
were switched out after they bought it.  Seems some out fit in Oklahoma or
Texas was making metal wings and they flew down and changed the fabric for
the metal and flew home the same day.  It has no radios.   He said about 8
people had called him about it.
 
Ken
