1964 PIPER CHEROKEE 140, CUTE AIRPLANE, NOT IN MOTION DAMAGE, EASY PROJECT, CHEAP !!
4471 TT
THIS CUTE LITTLE CHEROKEE 140 WAS SITTING IN IT"S OPEN T HANGER, MINDING IT"S OWN BUSINESS, WHEN THE PILOT ACROSS THE HANGER ROW HAND PROPPED HIS 150 WITH NO ONE AT THE CONTROLS.
THE 150 STARTED UP, AND WENT ACROSS THE ALLEYWAY, WHERE IT PROCEEDED TO CHEW INTO THE RIGHT WING OF OUR LITTLE 140 !!
THIS CUTE LITTLE RED AND WHITE 140 NOW HAS THE FOLLOWING, EASILY REPAIRABLE/REPLACEABLE DAMAGE;
THE RIGHT WING.
ALTHOUGH IT COULD BE REPAIRED (ONLY THE LEADING EDGE SKINS REQUIRE REPAIR, AND THE SPAR AND FUEL TANK AND INBOARD ARE UNDAMAGED), USED WINGS ARE READILY AVAILABLE, FROM US OR OTHERS, FOR $1,500, AND REPLACEMENT TAKES ONLY ABOUT A DAY, SO IT MAKES SENSE TO BOLT A REPLACEMENT ON RATHER THAN REPAIR THE DAMAGED ONE.
THE RIGHT AILERON HAS A BEND IN THE TIP, ONLY THE SKIN, NOT THE SPAR OR TIP RIB, SO IT CAN BE PATCHED OR STRAIGHTENED
THE LEFT AILERON HAS A DENT IN THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE SKIN ONLY. AGAIN, IT APPEARS THAT IT COULD BE STRAIGHTENED OR PATCHED
THE TRIM TABS EACH HAVE A SMALL TRAILING EDGE DENT, SHOULD EASILY TAP OUT.
THE LEFT WINDSHIELD, AND THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WINDOWS ARE CRACKED, AND THE RIGHT WINDSHIELD IS SCRAPED, ALONG WITH A SMALL PAINT SCRAPE ON THE CABIN TOP SKIN. SHOULD BUFF OUT.
THATS IT !
THERE IS NO OTHER KNOWN OR PRESUMED DAMAGE FROM THIS INCIDENT !!
NO LEFT WING DAMAGE !!
NO LANDING GEAR DAMAGE !
NO FUSELAGE DAMAGE EXCEPT THE PAINT SCRAPE ON THE TOP !
OVERALL WHITE WITH RED STRIPES, LIKE OTHER CHEROKEES, AND WITH A "WHISKEY" N NUMBER, LIKE MOST CHEROKEES.
4 SEAT INTERIOR, WHICH WAS OPTIONAL ON THE 140
TOE-BRAKES ON THE PILOT SIDE WERE ADDED WITH A 337 IN 1971
STANDARD INSTRUMENTATION
THE KING NAV-COM AND TRANSPONDER HAVE BEEN REMOVED, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED, BUT THE TRAYS AND WIRING ARE STILL INSTALLED, AS IS THE KING VOR INDICATOR AND 4 PLACE INTERCOM SYSTEM. REINSTALL KING STUFF, ADD YOUR DREAM STACK, OR ANYTHING YOU WISH.
YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE ENGINE AND PROP ARE NOT INCLUDED. THE PROP WAS SCRAPED, AND THE FORMER 140 OWNER DEMANDED A TEARDOWN INSPECTION (EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN REQUIRED), SO THE ENGINE, WITH ALL THE BOLT-ON ITEMS AND PROP WERE PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED HERE.
THE 140 HAS 3 ENGINE CHOICES AVAILABLE. LYCOMING 0-320 150 H.P., 0-320 160 H.P. (A SIMPLE MOD TO THE 150 H.P. ENGINE), AND LYCOMING 180 H.P. 0-360 STC.. THE 0-360 ACTUALLY GIVES THE 140 MORE SPEED AND CLIMB THAN A CHEROKEE 180, WITH THE SAME FUEL BURN.
THE ENGINE MOUNT IS UNDAMAGED AND BOLTED IN, AND THE CONTROL CABLES, WIRING AND HOSES ARE STILL INTACT.
SOLD WITH LOGBOOKS AND 337"S, AS WELL AS FAA BILL OF SALE.
LOCATED AT THE GREENWOOD, INDIANA AIRPORT, JUST OUTSIDE OF INDIANAPOLIS.
WE WILL PAY THE TIE-DOWN FEE FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION, AND MORE TIME IS AVAILABLE IF YOU DESIRE IT.
THIS IS A GOOD, CHEAP PROJECT, ON A DECENT AIRPLANE THAT IS AFFORDABLE TO OWN AND OPERATE.
PRICED CHEAP, SO YOU CAN MAKE IT WHAT YOU WANT COST EFFECTIVELY.
GOOD BIDDING
AS WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT IS LOCATED IN CRYSTAL,MINNESOTA, NOT……GREENWOOD, INDIANA ..…….. WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PERSONALLY ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR OR MOVING OF THIS AIRPLANE SORRY. WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT DOES NOT OBTAIN REPAIR ESTIMATES, AS WE DO NOT REPAIR ANY OF OUR AIRPLANES. WE ONLY FACILITATE THE SALE OF REBUILDABLE AIRCRAFT TO THOSE DESIRING TO SAVE MONEY OR HAVE MORE AIRPLANE THAN OTHERWISE POSSIBLE FOR THE MONEY. REPAIR OF ANY AIRCRAFT WILL DEPEND ON MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF USED PARTS, LABOR RATE OF THE REPAIR FACILITY, FAMILIARITY WITH THE AIRCRAFT, ETC. AND WE WOULD NEVER PRESUME TO ESTIMATE THIS NUMBER FOR A BUYER. BEWARE OF THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY GIVE UNREALISTICALLY LOW "ESTIMATES" FOR THE REPAIR OF THE DAMAGED AIRCRAFT THEY SELL. THIS ITEM IS BEING SOLD WITH A LOW RESERVE, THEREFORE WE FULLY EXPECT THIS LISTING WILL SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AUCTION, SO BID EARLY AND BID HIGH. THERE WILL BE NO CHANCE TO BUY THIS ITEM LATER!! AS WE SET OUR BUY-IT-NOW SO LOW, MANY OF OUR AIRPLANES SELL BY THIS METHOD BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION. DONT WAIT TOO LONG HOPING TO SNIPE IT AT THE END, AND BE DISAPPOINTED ! WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT INC IS THE #1 VOLUME SELLER IN THE USED AIRCRAFT MARKET! WE ARE THE REAL BRICK AND MORTAR WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT YOU HAVE SEEN ADVERTISED ON PAGE 6 OF TRADE-A-PLANE, AT OUR BOOTHS AT OSHKOSH, SUN-AND-FUN, AOPA, AND ELSEWHERE FOR OVER 20 YEARS !!!! WE HAVE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF SATISFIED CUSTOMERS OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS, SO WHEN YOU BUY AN ITEM THROUGH EBAY FROM US, YOU CAN BE ASSURED THAT WE WILL LIST ALL ITEMS AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE, AND THAT WE WILL ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS TRUTHFULLY. PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS THROUGH THE LISTING(ASK SELLER A QUESTION), BECAUSE THESE QUESTIONS GET ANSWERED IN A MORE TIMELY MANNER. PLEASE DON"T ASSUME. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT ANY FACET OF ONE OF OUR LISTINGS, PLEASE ASK ! SO THAT ALL BIDDERS HAVE THE SAME INFORMATION,WE PREFER NOT TO ANSWER DETAIL QUESTIONS BY PHONE. OUR PHONE SALES STAFF HAS NO DIRECT KNOWLEDGE OF THE ITEMS ON EBAY. DUE TO THE AUCTION FORMAT, IT WOULD NOT BE FAIR FOR THE HIGH BIDDER NOT TO BUY THE ITEM LISTED, SO TREAT YOUR BID LIKE A HANDSHAKE!! YOUR BID IS NOT A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, BUT RATHER A CONTRACT TO BUY OUR AIRPLANE AT YOUR BID PRICE SO BE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION, AND FUNDSIN PLACE. A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $2,000 IS DUE WITHIN 72 HOURS OF THE BID CLOSING. WE PREFER PAYPAL FOR THIS DEPOSIT, BUT IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PAYPAL, LET US KNOW, AND WE WILL HELP YOU FIND AN ALTERNATIVE.
