Thimble-Drome Super Sabre F-100

I hadn't seen much posted anywhere on one of these, so felt obligated to share here. Collected this from a deceased estate (always sad...) in nice (used) condition - no box or other parts, however the (worm-eaten) instructions were in another box.  Looks to have been run and the wife of the previous owner was confident it was flown back in the '70s; there's no damage although the plastics are starting to yellow.  Cleaned up nicely, the engine freed up after a good soak and it now flips over very nicely.  I reckon it's a goer but I think I'll put it up on display on a shelf in the study rather than just fly it for the sake of it...

It does look Nice , cleaned up good and kept well . was manufactured 1958-1963 you don't see these very often and in that good of shape I see it has a .020 on it !
