A 1945 Piper J-3 Cub project has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

This airframe had a major renovation in 1986 with Stitts PolyFiber and a partial rebuild and partial recover in 2003 as well. This aircraft was regularly rotated between floats, skis and wheel gear, but is being sold here with none of the above!! The complete airframe is included; wings, ailerons, complete fuselage, tail feathers, flying wires, lift and jury struts, cowling, engine mount and exhaust! This airplane did not crash!! While being stored outside for a time, the weight of a snowfall built up on the left wing and bent the lift strut, allowing the left wing to fall… The only damage to this entire airplane is to the left upper fuselage and the left wing… Sold with Canadian bill of sale, all logs since 1965 and folders full of receipts.

The project is located near Syracuse, NY and is currently available for bidding. Click here to check out the complete listing on eBay.

A 1951 Grumman HU-16B Albatross project has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

Total time is 7316hrs. Engines TSOH is 241hrs, Props TSOH is LH 241, RH is 1.0hr. The Aircraft was an Air-force Triphibian, that was completely restored in the mid-90s. It was kept airworthy until 2002. It was repainted in 2005 and put into indoor storage in 2006. The wings got damaged during relocation, damage is shown in the pictures. The right engine is seized from rain water, could need some cylinders replaced. The flight controls need to be recovered. It has military avionics installed. It is the only Albatross that carried Watercraft under the wings. Since the Aircraft has not been operated in such a long time, there would be a considerable work to bring the aircraft back to airworthiness. It is not located at an Airport and will need to be relocated prior to flight.

The machine is located in Vail, Arizona and is currently being offered for $200,000. Click here to check out the complete listing on eBay.
