As the listing says: DO NOT MISS THIS ONCE IN A LIFETIME CHANCE TO HAVE THE NICEST 150 AEROBAT IN THE WORLD !!!!
I'd say it needs a bit of work to make it the nicest aerobat in the world, wouldn't you?

Are they serious? I guess they are.
* AVCON 160 H.P. CONVERSION (ENGINE NOT INCLUDED) * TAILDRAGGER CONVERSION (TAILWHEEL NOT INCLUDED) WE WILL SUPPLY AN FAA BILL OF SALE, BUT LOGBOOKS AND STC PAPERWORK FOR THE MODS IS NOT AVAILABLE
Talk about putting lipstick on pig! Am I right in saying that without the STC paperwork and logs, the value of this thing is seriously reduced?
As Poobs would say, TFF!

Removable seat cushions!
