Where did you say it is....?

Looks like Colorado. Very nice paint layout.

For anyone interested in making a look-see.

Best regards,

Got it! U42 is in Utah.

You got it. The plane is at South Valley Airport aka Salt Lake #2 airport. That's the Wasatch Range in the background.

You might want to recheck your asking price. Mooney AC in Kerrville wants several hundred thousand for a very similar aircraft.

[carusoam]

Price is a funny thing....

It only matters to the buyer and seller.

Some people need every cent from the sale and others, a few thousand either way won't make a difference.

The rest of us are just spectators to this wonderful event.

I'm happy to see a nicely updated, older, mid body for sale.

Hoping the seller gets top dollar.

I also would like to know what type of business he's in? I would want to do something similar.

Before retirement, I was an industrial machine buyer of both new and pre-loved industrial machines...

Best regards,

As David points out above, don't leave anything on table. You may consider seeking professional help to best determine market pricing for a relatively unique machine in the current market. Then again, some sellers want things to go away fast!

I definitely appreciate the input. Trying to find comparable aircraft has been difficult at best.

Our goal is to find this Mooney a good home at a price that will make both parties happy.

One resource you may consider is All American Aircraft. They specialize in Mooneys.

See what you can learn from them....

well, if I only had some money...........

[par]

If I put a $500 deposit on it, can you hold it for me while I save up a $100K?

[Raptor05121]

Wow, probably the prettiest Mooney I've seen in a LONG time (sorry guys)

Wow, probably the prettiest Mooney I've seen in a LONG time (sorry guys)

Thanks! From what I can tell, it's a one off design by Scheme Designers. http://www.schemedesigners.com/Sample-Mooney231.htm

Yes, the plane is still for sale.

Thanks for the help Lance. I guess it's been a bit since I've been back here.

The plane is listed on the Controller website as well as:

I was recently asked for these additional views, so I'm adding them here as well.
