Owner purchased this plane in October of 2003. It sat in a hanger for over 15 years and was not flown. He began to restore the aircraft for his own peace of mind, and it has turned out to be a great time builder. The airframe was inspected for rust, corrosion and mice since it had sat for so long, but there were no problems found. The original log books were lost by the previous owner, so he had the plane thoroughly inspected, all AD's complied with and a new set of log books started. The price, as listed, is in consideration of the original logs being lost, but he spent a substantial sum overhauling this plane.

He flew the little bird to Lincoln, Nebraska to Mobile, Alabama. From New Orleans to Chicago and back with no problems and a great fuel burn.
