There appears to be some influence from the Spartan Executive in that airplane. The wingtips have a similar taper. It's not a lot, but there does seem to have been a bit of influence. Is the main gear and wing center section sourced from a T-6?

Sure looks like a possibility with the center flap and the wheel wells.
