The photo is of Gene Schaffer's  stunter. I took this photo at the fall meet in New Bedford , Mass in 1967.   H^^

Hi Ty:

Here's the photo that I posted on SSW of the same exact airplane in different livery at the 1969 nats! Note the "marble" effect of the paint. He did this with coarse steel wool dipped in paint. Orange over black and black over white. Neat effect!
