Beautiful restoration, and no doubt an utter blast to fly!

>>I saw this airplane fly a tight pattern and land for fuel, so I wanted a 
photo.  According to the pilot, it is a recently finished restoration, 
11 years in the making, and sports a Pratt & Whitney R-985 of 450 hp 
instead of the original 225 hp.
