Ever thought about one of these?
To my mind, it's got everything... it's a taildragger, a very nice hotrod, a classic... the original 1946 Globe Swift with the smaller engine is the true classic and can be found for reasonable prices, the one in the pictures is a Super Swift which is an updated version with a IO360, flat panel, modern canopy, wheels and brakes etc and a bit more expensive. Luggage room is a bit limited, but they're very economical and great to fly.
Shame to keep it outside though.

LoPresti tried to revive production but only two LoPresti prototypes are flying, alas.
