Rebuilding N994PT

Just a test post to our new Forum.
I did my first “Drive” to our Florida home, hauling my 1963 Chevrolet Impala SS in an enclosed trailer for the winter. On my way back I stopped at Brad Simmons’s shop and loaded up a set of long workbenches with wing cradles installed on them. Total drive time ONE WAY was 27 hours!! That trip by air in my Mooney Rocket at 5.5 hours(vs 3.5 nonstop in my IVPT) won’t be nearly as painful now after driving it once!
Hopefully construction of my new wings will start just after the first of the year!
