I'm looking for a "cheap" liaison aircraft project - Maybe a Taylorcraft L-2 or Aeronca L-3. Obviously would prefer it to be mostly intact (in other words not sourcing a ton of parts) or with reasonable hope of being rebuilt that I could use as a project at Dallas Executive Airport as a warbird outreach for local youth... if you know of something, please drop me a line. I'd like to also feature it's restoration on www.lbirds.com.

Here's an idea...
Check museums. Many are donated projects but lack the time/manpower/money to restore them so you might get one at a good price...especially since you are doing a youth project.

I checked the WAAAM website and they don't have one in the restoration line.
