1959 Bonanza Project For Sale: “Upgrades Too Numerous To Mention”

Please Note: This is an archived post. The information presented here may not be current and the associated listing may no longer be active.

A 1959 Bonanza K35 Project has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

The V-tail airframe has been the recipient of upgrades too numerous to mention, some from the factory, others from the aftermarket by S.T.C., designed to make the airplane faster, fly farther, be quieter and more comfortable, and be safer… Number one on most speed freak lists is the IO-520BB engine installation! The engine installed was rebuilt by Ultimate Engines of Mena, Arkansas, in 2000 with new cylinders, GAMI fuel injectors, and flow-balanced cylinders. Time since major overhaul now is 1,536. Unfortunately, this aircraft suffered damage when the pilot broke ground and folded the gear, then settled back onto the grass runway and landed gear up. Unlike a gear up on asphalt, the belly is not scraped up, but several belly skins are dented and wrinkled. Sold with logbooks for the airframe since day one in 1959 to the present, plus a large amount of supporting paperwork, including S.T.C.s, POH, and flight manual, and the engine logs since the very detailed overhaul, and the prop log.

The aircraft is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota and is currently available for US $16,950, although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the eBay listing, which includes many additional details (including damage overview) and photos.

1963 Maule M4 Project For Sale: “3602 TT, 422 SMOH, O-300”

Please Note: This is an archived post. The information presented here may not be current and the associated listing may no longer be active.

A 1963 Maule M4 project has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

This aircraft was restored in 1999, including complete recover with Stits Polyfiber and repaint with Imron in white, black, red, and gold. It still looks great. Used about 40 hours per year for the last 10 years as the owner’s practical but fun airplane. Unfortunately, after landing and during taxi earlier this year, the right landing gear shock strut broke, allowing the right main gear to bow outwards, which allowed the right wing tip to touch the ground, the right entry step to push backward slightly, and the tips of the fixed pitch prop to bend slightly. No other damage occurred, and the owner of the airplane made a repair on the shock strut so the airplane now rolls around fine. The O-300 engine installed here has only 422 hours since major overhaul in 2012. At the overhaul, all six cylinders were replaced with new Millenniums, new Slick mags, and a high-torque pushbutton starter. The engine is also alternator equipped. Sold with logbooks for the airframe and engine since new, as well as lots of nice additional paperwork.

The aircraft is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota and is currently available for US $11,950, although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the eBay listing, which includes many additional photos and details.
