"A couple of years back, I picked up an Aeronca Chief down in Florida and
flew it home. Real nice airplane, and a real bargain - because - the
engine wasn't all that great. Continental 85 with metal prop.

"It had been "overhauled" by one of the club members (not A.P.) and
they (the sellers) were honest about it up front. It leaked (a bit).
And they were right reasonable on the price.

"So a deal was offered, $1000 earnest money sent.

"And Leo and I went down to see?/fetch?"

in the 'with all the words' box, searching rec.aviation.* from Jan 2000 to Jan
2007.
