A 1948 Cessna 140 has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):
1948 Cessna 140, the nicest one you will see, left wingtip and elevator damage only, cheap!… Modified as you might expect, with Cleveland disc brakes, 150 exhaust, Hooker shoulder harnesses, bas tail pull handles, Bracket air filter, and auto fuel STC… This show quality plane suffered the indignity of an almost groundloop on landing, where it leaned hard to the left, before coming back onto all 3 gear… no prop strike, or propeller or engine damage at all!… The C-85-12F engine has 1,51 SMOH, 722 since a bottom end overhaul and case replacement, and only 20 hours on the 4 brand new superior cylinders… This s not a dirty messy “project”, this is an easy repair to a fantastic airplane, with a fantastic engine!
he aircraft is located in Sacramento, CA and is currently being offered for US $19,950, although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the listing on eBay, which includes additional photos and details.
