The Robin: steel-tube fuselage, wooden wings, fabric. This is how the Curtiss Wright ROBIN family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N76F, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Jenkins George Merritt, an individual, certificate issued July 24, 2008, expires October 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 28, 1953, 25 years after the 1928 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 45 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N76F was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Forest Fernando P QUICKIE (serial 76, cancelled June 8, 2000); Cessna 180B (serial 50504, cancelled May 31, 1978). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N76F. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
