1977 PIPER WARRIOR PA28-161, COMPLETE UNDAMAGED AIRFRAME, GREAT PROJECT, CHEAP !!
THE WARRIOR IS A GREAT AIRPLANE, AND I HAVE SUNG THIER PRAISES IN MY ADS FOR YEARS !!
STRETCHED FUSELAGE FOR REAL REAR SEAT LEGROOM
MODERN DASH LAYOUT, WITH 2 RADIO STACKS, 6 PACK INSTRUMENT LAYOUT, QUADRANT THROTTLE, RAM"S HORN YOKES, AND BOTH SIDE TOE-BRAKES !!
THE TAPER WING IS MORE EFFICIENT, SO CRUISE IS FASTER, CLIMB IS IMPROVED, AND LANDING IS SMOOTHER
BENCH REAR SEAT IS WIDE AND COMFORTABLE, BUT LOW ENOUGH SO YOU CAN GET AT THE LARGE BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT IN FLIGHT . THERE IS ALSO A LARGE LOCKING DOOR FOR OUTSIDE ACCESS.
THESE FEATURES, WHEN COMBINED WITH THE TROUBLE-FREE LYCOMING 0-320 ENGINE, MAKE THE WARRIOR IDEAL AS A FAMILY, TRAVELING AIRPLANE, OR A FORGIVING TRAINING AIRPLANE.
THIS AIRPLANE WAS OWNED BY A GENTLEMAN WHO FLEW IT TO ENGINE TBO, THEN PARKED IT, WAITING FOR THE RIGHT TIME TO MAJOR THE ENGINE
THAT WAS IN LATE 2007
UNFORTUNATELY THAT TIME NEVER CAME, AND ALTHOUGH THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED, IT WAS NEVER REPLACED, AND IS NOW NOT EVEN BEING SOLD WITH THE AIRFRAME HERE.
THE GREAT NEWS IS THE AIRPLANE WAS PARKED AS A FLYING AIRPLANE, WITH NO ACCIDENT OR INCIDENT DAMAGE !!
OVER THE YEARS IT ACQUIRED A SMALL (VERY SMALL) AMOUNT OF LIGHT HAIL PINGS, BUT THEY ARE NOT OBTRUSIVE, NOR DO THEY CAUSE ANY AIRWORTHINESS ISSUES. THEY ARE NOT VISIBLE IN ANYPHOTOS, AS THEY ARE TO SMALL, SORRY.
THE AIRPLANE IS OVERALL WHITE, WITH GREY AND GREEN STRIPES. THE PAINT COULD USE A LITTLE TOUCHUPS, AS SHOWN IN CLOSE-UP PHOTOS, BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT IT LOOKS GOOD OVERALL
EXTERIOR PLASTICS AND TIPS ARE OK AS WELL
INSIDE, THE GREY CLOTH INTERIOR LOOKS PRETTY GOOD, AND IS MORE THAN USEABLE AS IS
ALL FLIGHT AND ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION IS MODERN, AND SINCE THIS IS A 1977 WARRIOR, NOT A 1960"S CHEROKEE, THE DASH LAYOUT IS CLEAN AND THE INSTRUMENTS ARE MODERN
TRAYS ARE INSTALLED AND WIRED FOR THE FOLLOWING KING UNITS, BUT THE PANEL UNITS THEMSELVES ARE NOT INCLUDED
KX-170B WITH GLIDESLOPE
KX-170B WITH VOR (VOR INDICATOR IS INCLUDED)
KR-86 ADF (ANTENNA IS INCLUDED)
KMA-20 AUDIO/MARKER PANEL (ANTENNA IS INCLUDED)
KT-76 TRANSPONDER (ENCODER AND ANTENNA ARE INCLUDED)
KN-64 DME (ANTENNA IS INCLUDED)
THE 4 PLACE INTERCOM IS STILL INSTALLED AND WIRED
TOTAL AIRFRAME TIME IS 7526
THIS AIRPLANE SUFFERED NO DAMAGE.
IT SITS LIKE A TIME CAPSULE, AND WOULD BE READY TO FLY AGAIN IF YOU INSTALL A MOUNT FORWARD PACKAGE (THE ENGINE MOUNT IS UNDAMAGED)
REMEMBER, THIS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT AIRPLANE !!
LUCKILY, THE LOCATION IN THE COUNTRY WHERE IT WAS PARKED IS KNOWN FOR IT"S LACK OF CORROSION ( NO SALT AIR EXPOSURE)
NO WING OR CONTROL SURFACE DAMAGE
NO TAIL DAMAGE
NO CABIN OR DOOR DAMAGE
VERY LIGHT HAIL !!
NO INTERIOR DAMAGE
NO LANDING GEAR OR FIREWALL DAMAGE
THE STEP HAS A LITTLE SURFACE RUST, AND THE COWLING METAL HAS SOME PATCHES, BUT THE WHOLE AIRFRAME IS INTACT !!
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ENGINE REMOVAL (PROFESSIONALLY) AND SLIDING OUT THE RADIO PANELS, THIS AIRPLANE HAS NOT BEEN MOLESTED, STRIPPED OR CANABILIZED !!
LOT"S OF AIRPLANE, WITHOUT SPENDING A LOT !!
GREAT PROJECT, BECAUSE THE REPAIR IS ALL BOLT ON, NOT A SINGLE RIVIT TO REPLACE !! JUST INSTALL AN ENGINE.
INSTALL A 160 H.P O-320, OR UPGRADE BY STC TO 180 H.P., AND GET ARCHER LOOKS AND PERFORMANCE, WHILE SPENDING ONLY
GREAT AIRPLANE TO LEARN TO FLY IN, AND THEN YOU CAN KEEP IT, BECAUSE IT IS ALSO A GREAT CROSS-COUNTRY CRUISER !!
LOCATED AT THE WEST CHICAGO AIRPORT, ILLINOIS.
WE WILL PAY FOR PARKING FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION, AND MORE TIME IS AVAILABLE IF YOU DESIRE IT
LOGBOOKS AND FAA BILL OF SALE ARE INCLUDED, OF COURSE.
LOTS OF AIRPLANE FOR LITTLE MONEY, A GREAT PROJECT.
BUY IT NOW !!

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.
