Estate situation where the widow needs room for her horse trailer. Kitfox II with new Rotax 582 blue head, never run. Three blade composite prop with all fabric and finishing supplies included. Found this jewel for $8,500.

The 582 rotax is a great engine. [Linked Image] The Turtle ( I`am slow, but I get there ) Steve `83-C152 N94270 Tracker http://aprs.fi/#!call=a%2FN94270&timerange=3600&tail=3600

Its 90 miles from home at the moment. I just took a quik snapshot of it for show and tell. I bought it so I could store it in the garage or farm shop. Next to impossible to build or rent a hanger. Not going to let an aircraft set outside. Robert One man's junk is another man's treasure... I have a lot of treasures.

I especially like the sub-panel with the fuses, switches, etc. Easier to letter and it really looks classy. I think I would do something other than glossy black. Maybe a dark, flat, gray. Reg
