It was restored by/for a guy named Peterson out of Nebraska. They did two. If I recall one was done for the father and the other the son. One was a former aircraft. If I recall one was done with everything gold plated on the inside, the other silver. The second is N7055C which is owned by Tom Wood's out of Indianapolis. It is the one with the gold plate.

I have it as first used by the CAA as N302, then to a private owner as N6302, then to N90650 and finally to N119DP.
