Default RV-7 2nd hand wing kit near Niagra Canada, advice

ear Niagara Falls
RVators...

Recently started my -7 build, almost done with empennage, which was bought 2nd hand from an experienced builder and other than ordering a few extra nuts and bolts, has come together nicely.

Found a set of 14 year old -7 wings about 8 hours from me, near Niagara Canada. Owner is deceased and son is selling and offered a very good price. Obviously the issue is the knowledge lost with the builders passing, missing bits, and my relative newness to building. Not sure I can take an overall look and say ?-good shape I?ll take it, or no thanks.

Wondering if anyone has any advice, or even better, if any experienced builders that live near that area might be available to look at it with me. Not sure what I could offer in return, dinner's on me.


Thanks all and happy building.

I don't know anyone however in Canada the wings would have had to be inspected prior to being completely closed. If they are completed than they would have been inspected by http://www.md-ra.com/en/. You could ask the seller.
