[Jack Cook]

This very Super 3 passed through here a short while ago. It was here most of a day and they spend it tinkering with one mptor.

i saw the pic. looks like she had navy mods from the tail confuguration. she's in great shape too!!! i expected her to be a "little long in tooth." to anybody with the guts / deep pockets to go for her, beware........ in alot of instances these planes sit & languish because they have liens out the ying yang on them. look carefully & deeply!!! tom

Here's from the guy offering the bird at:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1944-DC- ... dZViewItem

"Upon sale it will have a free and clear title if paid in full on the bid."

But it looks like we'll have to wait for a relist as the auction closed at $41,500 and didn't meet his reserve price.

Is that the Super DC-3 you can see in the hangar at the end of the movie "Spartan" with Val Kilmer?

you guys are starting to confuse me.
The photos i uploaded are of the one that this thread was originally about-correct?
The ebay DC-3 is the thread going in a different direction has often happens-right??

Yeah, we're just offering options here. If you can't get the original Phoenix bird for storage and court costs, the Texas one is an alternative but the price is rising fast.
