PT projects for Sale ?

Post by thovson_virgil »

'I Have a PT-26 that is about 85 to 90 % complete on a ground up restoration.

'The economy has driven the prices of everything including aircraft down. But it seems like classics bring a good price. You might put it on ebay or barnstormers and give it a try. If you do please let us know.

'I guess the real question is what would you take for it? If the cost is not much to finish I would think you would do better to have a flying aircraft.

Where are you located?

Can you send some pictures and give a description of just what is finished and what needs to be done?
