Engine is run out. Avoid unless you get a really, really good price and are ready to spring for an overhaul.

So it last flew in November, two months out of annual? There are better 150's, or 120/140's out there.

Then again, it does need a rescue. He said he would take a Dodge in trade. Maybe you could find an '83 Omni for $300 and make a swap!

But his project is to be a Sonex, not a C150!
