I there
I'm new to this forum and new to the PA-world.... I don't know much about plane but I'm a mecanic/handyman type of guy and I love project. I just got my pilot license and I'm looking to buy a plane. I flown a couples 172 (boring) , PA-22 short wings 115hp and a J-3 C-90. I would like to own a SuperCub but my budjet is not there yet.
I found this aircraft for under 50k canadian.
Pa-12 Certified airplane 3400 Hours. TT time on engine at last
annual June 12-09 was 430 Hours. Engine is a 0-320-A2B . Wide deck. It is a Lycoming overhaul installed August 19 1995.
New life time wing lift struts installed 2007 .
Aircraft was recovered in 1993. fabric in medium shape, Cleveland brake, bungee suspension, PA-18 tail, no baggage compartment , no flaps , Elt, no radio, 1 owner since 1969, always inside , exterior 7/10 interior original 5/10
***Forgot to say that the PA-12 comes with a nice set of edo's 2000 floats with -12 rigging and float kit (not install on the plane yet)
...would need a seaplane prop and wing tips (I think)...
I would re-do the interior and paint first thing.
Would need some advice....
And average cost for wing tips purchase/installation, what prop and $$ to use on floats, cost to certified floats installation, flaps missing??$?, skylight mod price.... to many question to much information.... no real awnser found yet...
Help me please
What do I do?? I buy a 172 0-300 400smoh on edo's 2000 for the same price and I live a boring life OR I buy this -12...
