150HP Grumman Super Yankee FS Price Reduced!

Greetings rec.aviation groups, hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

I am still in need of selling my Super Yankee, and although I have had
more than 50 inquiries nobody has actually laid down the money to buy
it. I truly wish I didn't need to let it go, however I must do so.

The price had been listed at $26,000 firm, which is several thousand
under the real value of the aircraft. To make it even more attractive,
and specifically to eliminate the tire kickers taking any more of my
time, I will reduce the price now to $24,000 cash firm firm for a
quick sale. For the price of an average 108HP AA-1, you can have a
well above average 150 HP AA-1 with less than 400 SMOH, a fresh annual
inspection, several upgrades and enhancements, and turn-key reliable.
Delivery within 300 miles of Los Angeles is included in the price.

Full details of the airplane can be found in my previous posts to this
group. It was IFR certified once, and can easily be IFR certified
again.

Because of the extremely large percentage of tire-kickers and
non-serious inquiries thus far, I MUST screen out the wheat from the
chaff to minimize the time that is wasted. One exterior photo and one
brief e-mail is all I will send out, until a potential buyer has
contacted me by telephone and convinced me that they are serious
enough to warrant more. Interested parties must COUNT on taking the
time to see the airplane BEFORE asking me to send logbook copies,
fingerprints, hair samples, oil samples, lists of equipment, serial
numbers, tire inflation pressure, and any detailed info or paperwork
requests. Chain of title paperwork inquiries, title searches, logbook
inspections, pre-buy inspection deals, verification of electrolyte
level in the battery, and every other conceivable detail will only be
discussed here in my hangar face to face after we've agreed that we
pretty much will have a sale. Sincerely sorry for my attitude on this,
but you can thank all the time wasters and wannabees who burned up
weeks of my time.

If you are serious, if you have the money in hand, and if you have
ALREADY secured permission from: your
wife/partner/psychic/guru/bank/loan shark/Elvis , and if you do NOT
have to wait for: your kids to graduate/your Viagra to kick in/your
commission check/your retirement check/your lottery winnings then you
are welcome to call me at home, 818-990-2748 and we can discuss this
in greater detail. DO NOT use the e-mail link listed on this group to
contact me!!! Use auster5 (at) earthlink (dot)net . Offhanded
e-mails saying only "please send photos and info" will not be treated
as serious inquiries, and I'll simply re-direct you to read this post
again. Sorry AGAIN for the "attitude", but some of you have experience
with selling airplanes and dealing with tire kickers like I have!
