Good morning,
Thank you all for the input. The repair back in '77 doesn't bother me too much, but the slight wrinkle does, and mainly from a resale standpoint.
I am looking for a clean machine that I can build time in. Mechanical is more important than paint, but then again I don't want one with the paint falling off either. (There seems to be plenty of those around). So, I am probably looking for about the same 150 that everyone else is.
Fallbrook Airpark is 708' elevation, and 2160' long. (Short for a county airport). My 'mission' is mainly day tripping, and the majority will be solo, or with my 75 lb grandson. I like to fly to the high desert and land at sleepy little airports. A trip to Kern Valley Airport (160 miles away) would be a typical saturday flight.
Thank you all for your input and assistance!
