I noted a modern panel, doors on both sides, what appears to be a baggage compartment door on the left side, and a custom Mattituck TMX 360 version of the Lycoming 180 hp engine.  It also has drooped wing tips of modern design. Everything one needs to go for a $200 hamburger!

Another lovely human scale plane;
very nicely photographed.

Like a sunflower
it appears to be wishing
it were closer to the sun.
