Dan, there used to be a bunch of Ercoupers in your area, maybe they buzzed off. If you can get it to Dallas, you can request an audience with Pope Hardin at Terrill (TYR?). He could do a super prebuy.
You may want to wait a year before painting. If the ACF 50 was properly fogged in, it should stop weeping about then.

Couple of questions: Anyone know a good Ercoupe mechanic in that area I can use for a pre- buy inspection? It has been treated with AT 50 anti-corrosion. Will that present a problem with repainting it? Anyone out there have any personal knowledge of this plane? I've been lurking on the site and learning a bunch from the exchanges here. Thanks, Dan C
