Description:
This solid J‑3C‑65 has been carefully maintained by a 30‑year owner. Upgrades were made around 2003 when the aircraft was taken to bare frame for spar and wing strut enhancements. It has always been hangared—both by the current and previous owner. The propeller was inspected and refinished by Sensinich in 2009, and the airframe’s polystrits remain in good condition.
