1949 NORTH AMERICAN NAVION A , POLISHED FUSELAGE, LATE CANOPY, DASH, INTERIOR, FOR PARTS, DISPLAY.
Item specifics
| Condition: | Used |
THE NAVION IS THE 4 SEAT CIVILIAN USE AIRCRAFT CREATED AND BUILT BY THE SAME PEOPLE WHO GAVE US THE P-51 MUSTANG !!
THIS SPORTY, SLIDING CANOPY AIRCRAFT WAS A CONTEMPORARY OF THE EARLY BEECH BONANZA, BUT WITH AN OBVIOUS "FIGHTER PLANE" LOOK !!
THIS PARTICULAR AIRCRAFT HAS ONLY 3264 HOURS TOTAL TIME SINCE NEW.
IT SUSTAINED DAMAGE WHEN IT LANDED OFF-AIRFORT IN A COW PASTURE DUE TO FUEL STARVATION.
THE WINGS WERE SEVERELY DAMAGED, AND HAVE BEEN DISCARDED, AND THE LOW TIME CONTINENTAL 6 CYLINDER E-185 ENGINE HAS BEEN REMOVED, AND IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON ANOTHER OF OUR EBAY AUCTIONS, SO FOR SALE HERE IS THE FUSELAGE, WITH LOTS OF STUFF ON IT AND IN IT !!
DAMAGE TO THE COOL POLISHED ALUMINUM FUSELAGE IS CONFINED MOSTLY TO THE LOWER COWL/KEEL SECTION.
THE LOWER FIREWALL HAS SUSTAINED VERY LITTLE IF ANY DAMAGE, HOWEVER
THE BALANCE OF THE FUSELAGE STRUCTURE IS MOSTLY UNDAMAGED, AND LOOKS VERY COOL ALL POLISHED UP !!
THE SLIDING CANOPY IS INTACT, AND THE GLASS IS ALL OK
LARGER, LONGER SIDE WINDOWS INSTALLED
INSIDE, THE DASH AND RAM"S HORN CONTROL WHEELS HAVE BEEN UPDATED.
INCLUDED ARE MANY INSTRUMENTS, INCLUDING:
AIRSPEED, ALTIMETER AND VSI
TACH, MANIFOLD PRESSURE AND COMPASS

ONE ELEVATOR HAS A DENT TO THE BALANCE WEIGHT AREA, BUT THE SKINS ARE GOOD, AND THE OTHER LOOKS GOOD
THERE ARE A FEW SMALL DENTS IN THE REAR TAILCONE, PROBABLY FROM HANDLING AFTER THE ACCIDENT, RATHER THAN DURING IT
THE LOWER COWL AND NOSEBOWL HAVE OBVIOUS DAMAGE, BUT THE UPPER COWL LOOKS GOOD
