Guys, I could not find a decent well documented L-4 project so I went with this 1942 O-58A I found just up the road. It has 1100 hours TT and has been in storage since 1956. Airframe Logbooks go back to 1945 and the AAF flight time was brought forward and entered, 756 hours. I have the full operational history of the aircraft and plan to restore it as it left the factory with the NOS Learadios that I have. The B model came with RCA radios. The aircraft came with a box full of old documents, photos and original manuals. The photo bucket link is at the end of the post.
