Cleaning out my hangar and I decided I'm not going to finish (or start) a biplane project I collected. It's a tricycle gear biplane that's good for parts or a serious restoration if you want something "unique".
It'll need a full teardown inspection and to rebuild the RH wing (I have a set of ribs for it, but no spars). The top wing should be inspected as there's more flex in the center section than there should be (possibly a glue joint or cracked spar, I don't know).
The wheel pants aren't useable.
Has the flying wires in great shape, and a really nice canopy that may fit other aircraft.
The spring and nose gear is from a 172. With 6x6 wheels on the mains.
As of now it's a package deal and I'd rather not take the good parts off and send the fuselage/wings to the scrapyard because it's pretty well built (although needing inspection, and repairs), and it would give the buyer a chance of restoration.
It's on barnstormers but if someone from the forum could use the parts or wants a project I'll make you a deal.
Just mostly want it gone. It's registered in my name and has a lot of paperwork that's comes with it.
Ill take more pictures this week.
