This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

I pulled up the Barnstormer's ad and it appears to be a whole hangar full of junk, I mean aircraft treasures. THe person listing the BT-13 also has a Bucker Jungmeister and Bucker Jungmann "original" projects for sale and a 180 hp. Warner that originally came off of the Jungmeister for sale in a different ad.
There also appears to be a high wing Cessna, maybe a C-170A in the background of the photo with rotten fabric falling off the wings. Maybe a future WIX project in there somewhere?

BT-15 had a Wright R-975 while the BT-13 had the Pratt & Whitney R-985. Not sure if any/many of them are flying with the Wright engine.
