I need help with Stinson L-5 Sentinel

[PW2040]

Hi there.

Hope anybody can help me, I am in the process of buying an Stinson L-5 Sentinel in Denmark, which possibly have some history in Italy.

It needs a complete rebuild and especially the wings are in a very bad state , could any of you possibly find out if there are any in Italy who owns some wings who are willing to sell for a good price.

Or send me in the right direction........I am really in need for help :-)

My own wings are glued with casein , I have read that L-5B and later are using another glue which is a lot better.

Kind regards,
