There is a guy on Youtube who gets old almost abandoned planes not running at airports a cross the country. If he can just get it to run it becomes his to properly restore.

I drooled over a Rutan Long Easy that was dinged landing in Texas, which could be had at an attractive price, but the logistics getting it home to fix chilled it.

Oh... I would give my left nut and a year in Helll for that plane. It goes 145MPH cruise speed. Rutan Long EZ's take off like Tomcats. Something like a climb rate of 1700+ Feet/min. (Note: A Spam Can -- at very best -- can climb at 700 Fpm.)
