Vehicle description

THIS G-35 BONANZA HAS BEEN SITTING FOR DECADES IN THIS HANGER IN KANKAKEE ILLINOIS
SO NO, THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE PROJECT!
IN FACT, THERE ARE NO LOGBOOKS OR FAA BILL OF SALE !
THE AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE WAS ISSUED 11/1956, SO THIS IS A LATER 1956 "G-35"
EQUIPPED WITH A COMPLETE CONTINENTAL E-225 (225 H.P.) ENGINE AND BEECH ELECTRIC PROP!
THIS AIRPLANE WAS WELL EQUIPPED IN IT"S DAY!
15 GALLONS PER SIDE TIP TANKS PLUS THE ORIGINAL 20 GALLON AUX TANK PLUS THE ORIGINAL 20 GALLONS PER SIDE WING TANKS EQUALS 90 GALLONS OF FUEL!
THE FUEL SELECTOR ADDED FOR THESE TIPS IS DESIGNED TO WORK WITH ANY BONANZA THAT HAS AN "AUX FUEL" POSITION ON THE ORIGINAL SELECTOR, NOT JUST A G-35! EVEN IF THE AUX TANK IS NO LONGER INSTALLED, THIS ADD-ON SELECTOR AND TIPS WILL WORK!
THE ENGINE HAS BEEN UPGRADED WITH NEWER BENDIX MAGS AND A JASCO ALTERNATOR REPLACEMENT.
THE LATE STYLE BATTERY BOX WAS EPOXIED WHEN INSTALLED AND IT STILL LOOKS FANTASTIC!
INSIDE, COOL FEATURES (PUN INTENDED) INCLUDE THE SWAMP COOLER SYSTEM WITH OVERHEAD VENT ASSEMBLY.
A UNIQUE AND RARE OXYGEN SYSTEM CONTROL CONSOLE ON THE OVERHEAD IS SUPER NEAT!
WITH ALL THIS FUEL AND BUILT-IN OXYGEN, THIS WAS A REAL TRAVELING AIRPLANE!
TAC-AIR AUTOPILOT SYSTEM IS INSTALLED, AND WAS STATE OF THE ART, BACK BEFORE ANYONE EVER THOUGHT OF A "LEVEL" BUTTON!
THE DASH IS 100% COMPLETE, WITH ALL INSTRUMENTS, BUT THE YOKE AND HANDLE HAVE BEEN REMOVED AND ARE NOT INCLUDED.
THE RADIOS ARE A BIT LONG IN THE TOOTH, SO NO REAL VALUE THERE.
THE AILERONS ARE MAGNESIUM, SO THEY ARE NOT THE MOST DESIREABLE, EVEN THOUGH THEY APPEAR GOOD.
THE FLAPS LOOK GOOD AND APPEAR TO BE ALUMINUM REPLACEMENTS
ALL CONTROL SURFACES HAVE THINNING, CHECKED OR PEELING PAINT, BUT AS YOU WILL NOTICE, THE MIDWEST, NO SALT AIR HAS PREVENTED VISIBLE CORROSION!
IF THIS AIRPLANE HAD BEEN ON A COAST, IT WOULD HAVE ROTTED AWAY BY NOW, BUT OUR AIR DOESNT HURT AIRPLANES (BUT THE SALT ON OUR ROADS IN THE WINTER WILL ROT OUT CARS!)
IF YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE, OR KNOW OF, A 47-56 BONANZA THAT SUFFERED A GEAR UP LANDING, THIS AIRPLANE WOULD BE THE PERFECT DONOR!
NO DAMAGE TO THE NOSEGEAR DOORS OR COWL FLAPS
NO DAMAGE TO THE BELLY SKINS, STRINGERS OR BULKHEADS
NO DAMAGE TO THE INBOARD OR OUTBOARD GEAR DOORS!
NO DAMAGE TO THE GEAR ACTUATING RODS!
THE TIP TANKS ARE NOT SCRAPED
THE RUDDERVATORS ARE UNDAMAGED AND DON"T SEEM TO SHOW ANY OF THE TYPICAL "SPIDER-TRACK" CORROSION THAT THESE SURFACES ARE KNOWN TO ACCUMULATE!
WE OBVIOUSLY BOUGHT THIS AIRPLANE TO PART OUT, BUT THE WHOLE AIRPLANE IS LOADED WITH GOODIES, SO I THOUGHT WE WOULD GIVE ONE PERSON WITH A NEED A CHANCE FOR 1 STOP SHOPPING! AND AT A HUGE DISCOUNT OFF THE NOMINAL VALUE OF THE GOOD PARTS!
WE WILL PAY THE STORAGE FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION, AND MORE TIME IS AVAILABLE AT YOUR COST IF YOU NEED IT.
NO PAPERWORK, BUT LOTS OF GOOD STUFF HERE!
GOOD BIDDING!
