What a wonderful looking Ercoupe! I hope you will document the story. I know parts of it, but want to know more. The paint design is great too... Who says that 1946 cannot have all the style of something out of the 21st century! I am going to be looking up in the sky over Austin for you every day hoping to catch a glimpse. If my eye is not quick enough, I will look for you at some of the flyins.
