Zenith Z6A Restoration

Is this a great forum, or what? Now that Gil has told us what we're looking at, I found this website documenting restoration of a Zenith Z6A, the lone remaining example of the five ever built.

The picture appears to be Zenith # 3 N392V having just arrived in Idaho.
Thanks for visiting my site. We have 2 more wings to cover.

Very cool, Glenn. It's an ambitious project you've undertaken, and if the photos on your site are any indication, a beautiful restoration.

Where was Zenith? My info says Santa Ana Airways Airport, which I think was called "Midway Airport".
