Hi Cub enthusiasts and experts. I have owned several J-3 Cubs over the past 30 years but never a PA-18. I am a Super Cub "believer" and have followed the evolution, mods & even the rise of Cub Crafters. One thing I have not come upon, nor have I researched to any extent, is the history of the PA-18 fuselage. In particular, what material (steel) was usesd in the construction of early fuselages? And did Piper end up with 4130 before production came to an end?

1025 was used up to one point, here is an old thread on it.
