The link below will take you to an inflight shot of my 1938 Aeronca KCA landing on a dirt strip outside of my hometown, Visalia, CA.

The aircraft is an award winning restoration that is now itself 25 yrs old. I helped annual this ship for a couple of years and told its owner that I was interested if was ever to sell her. I was able purchase her two years ago.

No carb heat, single ignition, no aircleaner, non-stearable tailwheel and 50 barking ponies (sounds similar to Kinner!), all original configuration (including Flo-Torp prop), inside and out. Mine is #19 of 59 built.

I would like to see her in a flying museum collection someday.

Beautiful bird there, it's sad that you're letting her go...

Situation is getting different, day by day. Have lost my hangar. Reduced to $19,500.00, no haggle. If there is no immediate and serious interest, I'll knock her down and bring her home to the garage!

Knock 'er down and put her in the garage, have faith man, things will turn around, and you'll regret selling her off. Keep the faith.
