The wings are in really good shape after being covered for 50+ years and stored since then in the old barn lean to and for 40 in Doug’s building. Keeping them high and dry and out of the weather kept them in great shape.
With that said, it also kept any pest infestation to a minimum. I have found just a few mud dauber nests and one bird nest. None caused any corrosion.

It looks like they were holding down some cork gasket beneath the fuel tank.
