The engine is ready for overhaul as it is beyond TBO, it is making a small amount of metal, and #1 cylinder has low compressions. We are looking at joining a couple of local friends in a 182 in a couple of years so have decided to not invest any further in the 152. Here's the information; N# 48186 Exterior: Original paint, probably rated 7/10 Full Sparrowhawk conversion (beyond TBO and needs overhaul. Flyable with a ferry permit) Horton STOL kit Flap gap seals Aileron gap seals Wheel pants Combination clear/red beacon on vertical stabilizer Belly strobe Interior: Recent carpet and seat rework Recent door plastic with leather armrests Recent door post plastic Recent door windows Recent seat belts Avionics: PS Engineering PMA-6000 Comm Panel w/MP3 input Garmin SL30 Garmin SL40 Garmin GPSMAP-296 in Air Gizmo dock Digital tachometer RT359 Transponder Photos can be seen here: http://hunkydori.com:81/C152/ We are posting it on ASO for $19k but will reduce it to $18k for any club member. Feel free to email me at wingnut@hunkydori.com or call my cell, 702-203-4784. Last edited by Tom_Harvey; 11/01/14 04:38 PM. Tom Henderson, NV (KBVU)

(3S8)	Not surprised, sorry to hear it, be prepared to get a proportionally large number of enquirers from foreign interests offering a pretty penny for 152's so you should be able to get a good price for it! Compared to offers we received on Warner's 152, I think I would boot that asking price up a bit to start....... Bill Last edited by Grants_Pass_Bill; 10/26/14 10:35 PM.

Bill Interestingly enough Bill so far we've had offers primarily from people who expect to get it dirt cheap. We're in no hurry though. Tom Henderson, NV (KBVU)

We're in no hurry though. I dislike selling anything because of this. People want you to deliver it and you pay them $500.00 to take it off your hands. They are just not serious buyers.
