Airframe Overhaul in 1987, fabric is getting some age but remains serviceable. Logs go back to the reconditioning in 1987. ACTT 4055, TSMOH 32.

The engine, a C85-12-F, underwent a complete overhaul in 2021, which included a new O200 crankshaft, new camshaft, lifter bodies, and cylinders. It has only 32 hours since overhaul, and the performance is outstanding for a J3 Cub.

1945 Piper J-3 Airframe For Sale: “Great Project, Did Not Crash”

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 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.
