Well, looking at the EBAY photos initially , my first guess was for sure it needed lower longerons and maybe diagonals also.
Bottom wings are toast... spars have major splits/ cracks in them.
Fuselage longerons were taco-ed from the Grove gear taking a pretty good hit.
Jeanie got the plane home from Colorado , we unloaded it into my hangar at Salinas Municipal...
Tha next day my AP/IA buddy Jay came over to the hangar and we dug into the plane like madmen disassembling it in about 6 hours.
We got the bare fuse on sawhorses ,broke out a hacksaw and begun to straighten with a long bar.
The fuse is now in the garage with replacement tubes tacked in place
