parting out 1969 T337D

[louis@52f]

Parting out my 21 year personally owned 1969 T337D: Rear Engine, TSIO360AB3 185 SFRM full logs, Airframe, props and front engine: 2589 TT; Front prop 679 SMOH; Rear prop 644 SMOH; Front engine TSIO360A (non VAR) 1115 SMOH just starting to make metal. Note: airframe modified with Horton Stoll, most airframe parts are common to non turbocharged Skymasters; engines, Continental TSIO-360 are easily convertible to IO-360. Intact at present time, will entertain offers for entire aircraft with out airframe logs. hangar@swwmail.net

To all who have indicated interest in all or in parts of my 1969 T337D Skymaster:

After making the determination last year that I would part out my aircraft, and advertising as such, I later began to reconsider the amount of work and lifelong commitment that endeavor would entail. With that I began to concentrate on negotiations with persons whom might be interested in taking the entire aircraft and parting it out themselves. Now, after several months of negotiations with various parties, I still have no firm commitment.

The aircraft is currently still intact, and could be flown under a one time ferry permit to a location where it would be parted out. This is my preferred scenario, though I may yet begin the parting out process myself. However, as my wife and I are very close to leaving North Texas for the summer, I don't at this point have time to continue or start new negotiations. The entire project is now on hold until our return to Texas in late fall. The Skymaster will remain nice and dry in it's insulated hangar with engines pickled for storage.

Again, thank you all for your interest. I will retain the contact information I have and when I start this process again I will notify those who have shown past interest.

The airplane is still available and intact, have been talking with some folks in Texas about them taking the entire aircraft, as is, to part out. However, I will be out of town until early November, so any deals made would not be finalized until then at the earliest. Last discussions where in the mid to lower $20k area for the entire thing.

The airplane is still available, intact and could ferry, would let the entire thing go for $21k, includes engine logs, prop logs and first two of four airframe logs. I am now advertising the engines and props for sale individually, so this deal expires with the first commitment I get on an engine or prop.
