Thank you all for your response. Advise taken. I think its better to proceed slowly, look at an aluminum and find one flying and in annual. Very happy I found Mooney Space.

I have just started flying again after many years. Looking to buy my first plane - a 1959 Mooney M20A. It is out of annual but the engine I am told is strong with low hours. The problem with the aircraft is the glue bond between the wood and the aluminum on the wings has separated in about 10 spots on each wing. I am told that the plane is flyable but needs to ne ferried. Anybody have any idea about what I am looking at in regards to cost and time? Should I even pursue this plane?
