Vehicle description

Cub is freshly restored with only about 25 hours on it since complete restoration 8/2019. Engine is about 75 hours SMOH. Paint and fabric using the Airtech process. The Cub is flown regularly so hours may vary. It is currently finishing up an annual inspection and will be sold with a fresh annual. I restored this Cub expecting to keep it the rest of my life. But kids have no interest in flying it so I am moving on to another project. Here is a list of items that were replaced and done during the restoration. I have way more invested than my asking price not including labor. It is being sold with a rigged set of EDO 1320 floats. They are water tight and in good condition. But could use a little TLC. I am including a link to the restoration photos below. Feel free to call or text me with any questions. I am an A&P licensed mechanic. James
