N6758N Posted January 11, 2017 Report Posted January 11, 2017 Isn't this technically a D model converted? Quote

FAA registry shows serial number as 2397, which is a 1963 C model... D Model serial numbers were 100-260. AFAIK, the serial number didn't change if/when it was converted to retracts.

mooniac15u Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 Your eBay listing still has 12 days left... Quote
Marauder Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 Your eBay listing still has 12 days left... And I am ready to put my $1 bid in. I really want that rusty yoke clip! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I'm betting he can get pretty far into that annual in 12 days. That $16,500 pricetag will be a lot better bargain when it's airworthy. 1 Quote
Raptor05121 Posted January 23, 2017 Report Posted January 23, 2017 Alan, please let the new owner know about MS. I think that is the closest 'living' relative to my N6744U. I'm glad to hear this airframe will still be saved. 1 Quote

My old one 6167u= 5/8/63 and 6670U= 3/1/63. 6761U is live and well in Claremore, OK Pritch 2 Quote
