Van,
I believe that is more likely a (partial) Piper PA-11 fuselage. Main indicators for me are the "X" bracing between the upper longerons (aft of the engine mount) and the rear seat bottom as a perforated metal sheet.
Additionally I think I see:
2 Piper stabilizers (one uncovered)
1 Aeronca satbilizer
1 crushed Piper elevator
2 Piper vertical fins and accompanying round back rudders (PA-12 or PA-18)
2 Piper struts (one bent) probably of the unsealed variety
1 Continental A/C series oil tank
I'm glad you're excited. Hope you didn't pay too much...
