THIS 1964 CESSNA 182G IS DAMAGED IN A WAY THAT MOST "ACCIDENT" AIRPLANES ARE NOT !!
IN FACT, WHEN SOMEONE ASKS ME WHY FIREWALLS AND LOWER COWLINGS ARE SO EXPENSIVE, I USUALLY ANSWER "BECAUSE MOST AIRPLANES DON"T CRASH BACKWARD!"
BUT THIS AIRPLANE DIDN"T CRASH !!
DURING A HIGH WIND EVENT (NO TORNADOS IN CALIFORNIA), WHILE ON THE RAMP AT A SAN DIEGO AIRPORT, A PORTION OF A HANGER DOOR FROM A NEARBY HANGER FLEW OFF AND HIT THE TAILCONE OF THIS AIRPLANE.
AS YOU CAN SEE, THE DAMAGE STARTS BEHIND THE BACK WINDOW. THERE IS A SMALL BUMP ON THE LEFT SIDE SKIN AT THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE REAR WINDOW, AND THERE IS NO AIRFRAME DAMAGE VISIBLE FORWARD OF THAT POINT !
THAT MEANS NO FIREWALL DAMAGE
NO COWLING DAMAGE (UPPER OR LOWER) AND THE COWL FLAPS ARE GOOD
THE CABIN SECTION, INCLUDING DOOR FRAMES, DOORS, SPAR CARRY-THROUGHS AND ROOF, BELLY AND GEARBOXES, EVEN ALL OF THE GLASS, ARE UNDAMAGED !!
THE WINGS ARE THE DESIRABLE LONG RANGE VERSIONS, AND BOTH BLADDERS WERE REPLACED IN THE LAST 400 HOURS.
NO DAMAGE TO THE WINGS, TIPS, FLAPS OR AILERONS, AND MONARCH CAPS ARE INSTALLED.
ALL THREE LANDING GEAR ARE INTACT AND UNDAMAGED, AND EVEN ALL 3 WHEEL PANTS ARE OK !!
INSIDE, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IS MOSTLY COMPLETE, WITH THE RADIO PANEL UNITS AND INDICATORS MISSING (THE REMOVED EQUIPMENT WAS A MISH-MASH OF OLDER EQUIPMENT, NOT NEW GARMINS ). GYROS ARE LATE STYLE AND LOOK GOOD.
EI EGT DIGITAL SCANNER INDICATOR, AND SHOULDER HARNESSES FOR THE FRONT SEATS
NICE SHEEPSKIN SEAT COVERS OVER FAIR FRONT SEAT UPHOLSTERY, WITH A GOOD SPLIT BENCH REAR
THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED FROM THE MOUNT AFTER THE DAMAGE, ALONG WITH THE PROP, AND ALL ACCESSORIES BOLTED TO THE ENGINE, AND THESE ITEMS ARE NOT INCLUDED !! I SAY AGAIN, THE ENGINE AND PROP ARE NOT INCLUDED !!
THE PAINT LOOKS GOOD, THIS IS A NICE CLEAN AIRPLANE, NOT A WORN OUT OLD DOG.
THE FORWARD PART OF THE VERTICAL FIN IS DENTED, BUT THE TOP AND BACK, INCLUDING THE STROBE ASSEMBLY, IS UNDAMAGED
THE RUDDER WASN"T HURT BY THIS INCIDENT, BUT IT SEEMS TO HAVE A FEW PINCHES ON THE TRAILING EDGE AND A SLIGHT DIP ON ONE SIDE
BOTH SIDES OF THE HORIZONTAL STAB HAVE A DENT, BUT THE ELEVATORS LOOK GOOD
SO YOU WERE THINKING ABOUT ADDING ONE OF THE BIG ENGINE"S TO A 182 (PETERSON 260 H.P., 285 H.P. CARB OR FUEL INJECTION, OR THE BIG IO-550. THE TAILCONE IS READILY AVAILABLE TO MAKE THE REPAIRS, AND WE ARE SELLING THIS PROJECT FOR A FRACTION OF IT"S PARTS VALUE, DUE TO IT"S DISTANCE FROM US.
SOLD WITH FAA BILL OF SALE AND AIRFRAME LOGBOOKS SINCE DAY 1, SO THERE WILL BE NO REGISTRATION ISSUES.
LOCATED AT BROWN FIELD, SAN DIEGO. WE WILL PAY THE TIEDOWN FEE FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION.
IF YOU ARE DOING A CRASH REPAIR ON A 182, YOU CAN"T AFFORD NOT TO BUY THIS AIRPLANE AT THIS PRICE
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A CHEAP PROJECT THAT WILL RETURN MORE THAN YOUR INVESTMENT, HERE IT IS.
GOOD BIDDING
AS WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT IS LOCATED IN CRYSTAL,MINNESOTA, NOT…….......SAN DIEGO, CA...... ..…….. 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!

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!!
