Unknown Airframe at Essex Skypark, MD

A question from the Colonel;

Hi All,
The Col. again, I was out at the Essex Skypark and while checking out the local based Stearman I came across this unknow wreckage not sure what it is maybe some of our Wix experts can guess. Also while I was walking around the local Security Cat was on patrol not sure what he was looking for
maybe trying to keep those pesky N3N off the airport.

And some other pics;

I think that's a BT-13

Must have been the version with the loveseat in the back.

Yep that is a BT-13, SNV1 frame. I was once told that when the BT-13's were sold off after the war a lot of the new owners removed the rear seat and controls and put in a bench seat so they could fly two people in the back.
