Stolen Engines

Fuel Bladders? How are the avionics (or lack thereof)?

Like another poster said: $2k is all it's worth.

1966 Piper Astek

Uh...yeah.

This plane was last used four years ago and has been sitting in the
air field since.Air frame wings,fuel tanks and landing gear are in
great shape.

Ha! I'd enjoy a demonstration of the fuel holding capabilities of those
bladders after having sat dry for four years.

But the seller doesn't claim that the avionics are "in great shape."

I've flown without avionics for years. Flying with cracked fuel bladders
would be much different.

I doubt, however, that anyone is likely to be dumb enough (like me) to try
strapping two new engines on this plane. It's parts.

There are eight days to go. I suspect it's worth more.

Only because it's on Ebay. Have you ever noticed many of the things that
sell on Ebay can be purchased new for less money?

om...
The engines/props were stolen off a twin that had been sitting for 4
years (the auction of the plane is on Ebay). Just wondering if the
serial numbers are in a FAA or maintenance database somewhere and
could be traced as to where they are now. Any other ideas how to find
them? If they were shipped out overseas, would there also be a record?
Thanks.

The engines will probably end up on airboats.
