A 1947 Cessna 120 airframe project has been spotted for sale.
According to the listing, it has 4,349 hours total time and features several upgrades, including added “D” side windows, a full electrical system with lighting and avionics provisions, and shoulder harnesses for both seats. The aircraft landed off‑airport after a fuel exhaustion incident, causing tailwheel bracket failure and wrinkling of the tailcone skins from the midpoint aft, but the cabin, wings, engine mount, firewall, landing gear, and vertical surfaces were undamaged. Additional minor issues include small non‑structural dents in the left wing leading edge, a slightly bent cabin top skin, and a minor push in the left elevator skin. The engine has been removed (airframe compatible with C‑85, C‑90, or O‑200), and the aircraft comes with complete logs, extensive documentation including the original 1947 weight and balance, and remains in calendar annual until July 2026.
The project is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota and is currently available for US $4,995, although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the eBay listing, which includes many additional photos and details.
