J-3 in Fort Worth area?

I have a friend who is 6'3" tall and 71 years old about to strike a deal on a J-3 sight unseen out of state. He called to ask my opinion of the airplane, and my first question was: "Do you fit?"


Does anyone know of a J-3 in the Fort Worth area that my friend can sit in? He has owned a SuperCub in the past, but a J-3 is a little tighter to get in and out of. My friend has a hangar at Parker County Airport in Weatherford.

Any help would be appreciated. He is trying to make a decision fairly quickly.

Thanks,

Ed Lasater
 
An EAA buddy here at the McKinney airport (KTKI) has one (it might even be for sale, I think). If that's close enough for you, I can put you in touch with him.
 
The back seat of a J-3 might have more space than the back of a Super Cub. At 6' and 75, I am starting to have trouble getting in the back seat in a Super Cub Amphib, and my head hits the overhead. Not true in the j-3.
 
Have a nice one for sale here in Graham that is currently in my hanger for annual inspection. Nice J3.
