Clear as day if you look for it.  An A model judging by the shape of the door bottom.  JImChuk

Good eyes! I didn't notice it. So....is it broken or wood rotted? Seems odd that an inside one would break like that. Also, obviously not flyable even tho seller claims it is.. Seller said Cowl needed some work. I'd worry a LOT more about the flapperon hangar!

This is why I wander around here.  The amount of knowledge you guys possess is staggering and I'm humbled to be allowed to glean what I can from the casual banter amongst yourselves.   I love it.    

I'm slowly absorbing what I can. Appreciate it,  thank you all for the continued education. 

For what it's worth, I've seen this plane sell 2 times now in less then a year on the market place pages. Seems cause for concern but that's just my opinion.  Take it for what it cost. Nothing.   

 

Take care folks

OK, I have to admit... The reason I saw it was I got my Model C at a GOOD price because all the hangers were broken off the right wing. So when I hear of a good price on an avid/early fox, that's one of the first things I look for. I need to get started on fixing my plane.
