Squaring up the 180 tapered wing to make an early 170 rag-wing. The aileron corrugated skin will be a little off but who's looking that close?

Left wing tip, Cessna 170B/180/185 tapered. Right wing tip, Cessna 170 rag-wing

Technically the "large" dorsal vertical stab on the OE-2 came out before it was used on the Cessna 180/185s. Initially the 180s had the smaller dorsal vertical stab.

Tail cone and "Large dorsal" vertical as installed. The smaller C-180 dorsal vertical/rudders were cut and used for the horizontal stabs and elevators for the OE-2. The OE-1 cowling bottom has been "plugged" (above photo) to somewhat make it look like the OE-2 cowling.
