THE 175 IS THE HOTROD VERSION OF THE VENERABLE 172 SKYHAWK.
THEY ARE THE SAME AIRPLANE STRUCTURALLY, WITH THE SAME CABIN, FUSELAGE, WINGS, GEAR AND TAIL
THE GEARED 0-300 ENGINE PRODUCES 165 HP, VERSUS THE REGULAR 0-300"S 145
UNLIKE THE 172, ALL OF THE 175 MODELS, INCLUDING THIS ONE, WERE EQUIPPED WITH THE DESIRABLE LONG RANGE FUEL TANKS, NOW DESIRED BY EVERYONE CONVERTING THIER 172 TO 180 HP LYCOMING POWER.
THIS AIRPLANE HAS ALSO BEEN UPGRADED TO FIBERGLASS TIPS WITH BUILT IN FORWARD FACING LIGHTS. REALLY COOL
THE GREY CLOTH INTERIOR HAS BEEN REDONE, AND IT LOOKS FANTASTIC!!!
SEATS, SIDE PANELS AND HEADLINER ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL
THIS AIRPLANE ALSO HAS THE COMPLETE AVION DASH KIT INSTALLED!!
THIS FLAT METAL DASH CONVERSION KIT UPDATES AN OLDER DASH TO STATE OF THE ART !!
THIS IS THE FULL CONVERSION, AND INCLUDES ;
A CENTER STACK AVIONICS RACK
MODERN SIX-PACK INSTRUMENT LAYOUT
ALL NEW SWITCHES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
LATE STYLE BIG RAMS HORN YOKES WITH CENTER PADS AND PUSH TO TALK SWITCHES, AND THE YOKE BAR BEHIND THE DASH TO ALLOW FOR THE CENTER STACK
A PADDED EYEBROW WITH DIM-ABLE LIGHTING BUILT IN
NEW DESIGN THROTTLE AND MIXTURE CABLES
THIS COMPLETE KIT TRANSFORMS AN OLD DASH INTO A NEW ONE!!
UNFORTUNATELY, THIS AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE ON APPROACH TO LANDING AT THE GOLD BEACH OREGON AIRPORT, A BEAUTIFUL RESORT TOWN ON THE PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY.
THE AIRPLANE APPROACHED TOO LOW, AND HIT THE PERIMETER FENCE WITH THE NOSEGEAR, WHICH CAUSED THE GEAR TO COLLAPSE BACKWARD, AND THIS NICE AIRPLANE TO FLIP OVER.
DAMAGE TO THE AIRPLANE IS PRETTY MAJOR
THE TAIL IS CRUSHED DOWN, THE HORIZONTAL AND ELEVATORS ARE HURT
THE WINGS ARE BOTH DAMAGED OUTBOARD OF THE STRUTS, AND THE LOWER FIREWALL IS DAMAGED
MIRACULOUSLY, ALL OF THE GLASS IS INTACT, SO THE BEAUTIFUL INTERIOR AND GLASS ARE STILL IN FANTASTIC SHAPE
THE GO-300 ENGINE HAS SUSTAINED ANPROP STRIKE, BUT THIS ENGINE ONLY HAS 471 HOURS SINCE MAJOR, SO IT IS FAR FROM JUNK
EVEN THE ENGINE HAS BEEN UPGRADED
IT HAS;
B&C LIGHTWEIGHT HIGH TORQUE STARTER
LATER STYLE MAGS
INTERAV ALTERNATOR CONVERSION
SCREW ON OIL FILTER ADAPTER
ALL OF WHICH ALSO FIT A REGULAR 172 ENGINE
THE LONG RANGE FUEL TANKS DO NOT APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN DAMAGED AT ALL
THE DISC BRAKES AND MAIN WHEELS ARE NOT DAMAGED
SO I DONT REALLY THINK THIS AIRPLANE IS A REBUILD PROJECT
BUT IF YOU HAVE AN OLDER 172 or175, AND WOULD LOVE A MODERN GREY INTERIOR IN GOOD CONDITION, THAT STUNNING AVION DASH CONVERSION, LONG RANGE FUEL TANKS, FIBERGLASS SEMI-DROOP TIPS WITH RECON LIGHTS, THE ENGINE UPGRADES, AND MORE, THAN THIS AIRPLANE WILL BE A FANTASTIC VALUE FOR YOU.
IF OREGON WAS CLOSER TO US IN MINNEAPOLIS, WE WOULD JUST SELL THE INDIVIDUAL PARTS FOR LOTS MORE THAN WE ARE ASKING HERE, BUT IT"S QUITE A WAY FOR US, SO OUR INCONVENIENCE IS YOUR GAIN !
BY THE WAY, THE GO-300 CYLINDERS WORK ON A REGULAR O-300, SO YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE ALSO HAVE THE 6 CYLINDERS TO DO A TOP OVERHAUL $3,000 worth OF GOOD CYLINDERS !
THIS IS A SCREAMING DEAL FOR THE RIGHT PERSON, AND GOLD BEACH IS A GREAT DRIVE AND A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO SPEND A COUPLE OF DAYS WHILE YOU TAKE THE AIRPLANE APART FOR TRANSPORT. YOUR WIFE MIGHT EVEN WANT TO COME WITH YOU !
GOOD BIDDING
AS WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT IS LOCATED IN MINNESOTA, NOT…GOLD BEACH, OR……..…….. WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PERSONALLY ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR OR MOVING OF THIS AIRPLANE SORRY.

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.
