I am happy to report that N4263S took to the skies again on Saturday,
January 15th. I have owned her for just over two years and have spent
that entire time getting her airworthy again. The A/C logs show her last
flight being in 1994. The takeoff and climb performance with the Jake
755B2 is impressive to say the least. I am totally new to the 24 and I
have to say, "What a great flying airplane". I'll try to get some photos
posted in the next few days.

'I had the shop at Fresno Airparts rebuild both Ranger magnetos and also make a new shielded harness all for $900.00. The shielded harness was $300.00 of that amount. Very nice workmanship on the mag's. They came back to me like new. I had sent the harness manifolds with my order. When I received the whole package it was complete and ready to go. They also modified the harness elbow behind the carburetor so I knew this was not their first time.
