When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Sweet. I thought it had a bit of a WWII look about it. I got about ten hours in an chipmunk once as an RAF cadet when I was young, seeing that vid
has bought it all back. Love to do that again some day.
So - locost airoplane anyone? Piper cub replica perhaps, car engine? Very common project in the states...

Yep, Dad learned to fly there 3 years ago, so he knew they were there.

Yeah, mastering the Harvard was the last step before you were given your Hurricane / Spitfire.
My Dad's aerobatic Auster has a Chipmunk engine in it, a whole 145 hp from a 9 litre engine
