Chuck, as a reporter 50 years ago I had a chance to buy a Mustang with zero-time pickled engine for $8,000. I didn't have the money to fly it at 90 gallons an hour but thought I could send it home to the barn as part of a pension plan. I cooled off and bought a Cessna 180 for $9,000. You lived a dream. I keep the juices jangling now with my 180hp Bushmaster experimental with McCauley 84/43 prop on 2250 floats. Regards, King
