OK, I know I have seen an old-fashioned looking, homebuilt, high-wing ultralight (probably a single-seat European microlight, to be exact) that looked like a powered version of an old primary glider. IIRC, it was wire-braced, with a fabric-covered triangular kingpost above the center section for the landing wires and a completely exposed, Breezy-style open cockpit. I think it was German. Does that ring a bell with anyone?
 
Maybe this one ? http://www.paterzell.de/cms/index.php?id=88

(Translation: 1986: "A new motor glider Scheibe C-Falke 2000 was bought. The SFG Weilheim (flying club Weilheim)
has 65 members now. With a modified SG-38 training glider, fitted with an engine and modified into a motor glider
flying tests were started.

Nope, close, but that is actually a motorized primary glider, the one I have in mind just looks generally similar to one but was designed as a powered aircraft. IIRC, it had a pusher engine, possibly a VW. Thanks for the suggestion, though!
