Hey Fellow Cubbers,
It is with great joy and deepest regret that I must put my cub on the market. Ive accepted a transfer in my ATC line of work to Anchorage, AK from Houston, TX. With the cost of living jump that im about to undertake, I am going to have to sell the cub :'(

Here is her stats (roughly as I fly her frequently)

1940 J3F-65, Franklin 4AC-176 65HP, 3300TTAF, 1815TTSNE - Put on in 1946 (569STOH), Mid-80's re-cover (ceconite), new tailwheel (lang), wood prop, wood wings, June 2009 Annual, damage history in 1946 (re-build / new right wing) and in the early 60's (total restoration finished in mid-80's). The fabric has a few slits (patched) and the bathtub area could use a little paint, but overall the fabric is in great shape. The paint is peeling away from the fabric in a few spots but has been stopped by use of dope and silver (See pictures below). Wings were off for transport in May 2008 and airframe / wings checked for corrosion and found none. New Bungees in May 2009. Spare plugs, new skylite glass, and spare tailwheel parts included. Feel free to ask any other questions. I am asking $22,500 and I am accepting offers.
