I just want to know if Lee was wearing any pants when you were drawing on the plane?

I guess you could "chalk" it up to being a free spirit and letting it all hang out! LOL

Like Doug, I went though my dads photos and found the one on the left. Rockford 1965- I'm on the right.
Last year Sport Aviation had a photo of the same airplane on the last page of the magazine.
