Beautiful Champ! Is that yours? At one time I owned two Champs, both 1946 models. I sold one and gave the other to my son if he would rebuild it. It is almost done but we are having issues with the carburetor. It was professionally rebuilt but it splutters at idle like a vacuum leak. Oh well it is too cold to fly here anyway, especially with the wonderful heater on a Champ!


This is the Champ, my Ford and my son's Pontiac.
