Default Roadrunner Homebuilt - request for info

I've looked all through the http://www.vula.org website for info on the
"Roadrunner" and came up empty. The plane is a 2 seat side by side,
wood/fabric, has convential gear and a Continental C85 engine. It
physically resembles a small Piper Warrior in taildragger configuration.
It should qualify for light sport...

Any directions for specifications that someone could point me in would
be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I won't kneaux more until I can see it
this weekend...

A 13k image is available he

I can be emailed he toepfer at bellsouth dot net
My return email is valid, but heavily spam filtered...

Someone close by has the logs for it (he sent me the frustratingly small
photo), I'll visit him tomorrow. Otherwise its patience, patience,
patience...

I'll going along with a downpayment for it Saturday if its airworthy...

Darrel,
I can't find squat on it online. Just be very careful buying something
you don't have anything to compare it to or know "how it operates". I do
like the looks! Keep me posted, and find out who sold plans to it and what
have ya! May have to build one myself :0
