WTB 1977 to 1982 ish J model. Longtime watcher, first time poster... I'm a pro pilot looking for a J that hasn't had structural damage (prop strike with subsequent overhaul ok) for a personal plane. Would prefer more than a wing leveler autopilot (nav/alt hold) with at least a Garmin 430 and decent engine times...max of $100k. It is a little before the Spring market, I know. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Congrats! I'm still looking. That's a beautiful J.

Thanks! It was on Barnstormers. Seller had 2 offers after I sent the deposit...so I guess things are moving quickly...

Congrats.... J's are awesome machines. I have the same year airplane and your serial number is three air frames newer... I'm sure you will enjoy her, like I enjoy the heck out of mine.

It was on sale on TAP last year, but from what I recall he lowered the price on Barnstormers. I know that the J's lost useful load as they got older. That, combined with the fact that I keep consuming useful load as I get older, gave me pause. Owners with realistically priced airplanes will be able to sell quickly. Enjoy it.

I took a long look at this plane and talked to the owner, seemed like a good guy so it's great to see that this J found a new home! Looked very clean and well kept. Enjoy it.
