This may be another Porterfield of Rick Wood's. The link below didn't work for me, as I don't do Facebook. Hopefully, it will work for you. Otherwise, contact Rick Wood (see the previous, recent Forum post of a Barnstormers ad).

As seen on Facebook, by member Bill Skinner:

    Porterfields had a list of options available  at extra cost. Paint color was one of the options. I have owned this Porterfield for almost 30 years and finally got around to restoring it. The wing color is Idaho Snow.
