1946 Piper J3 Cub C-85 hp. (Recently restored by a specialist in wooden gliders and Cubs. Grove brake mod, Scott tailwheel, 2 12 gal. wing tanks, new prop, less than 90 hours on C-85-12.)

1959 Cessna 150, production number 100, restored with original factory paint scheme.

All of my aircraft are relatively "low time” and have been hangared in the dry climate of Marfa, Texas since 2003.


Vintage soaring books (Robert Kronfeld, for a rare example), memorabilia, photos, postcards, posters, etc.

My large 60'x 60' Mueller Steel hangar (tallest of my three hangars) is for sale or lease on Marfa Airport. Built in 2007.
Schweiss electric Bi-Fold door, very tall ceiling. Alarm system.
Roll-up garage door in back corner. Concrete floor and large ramp. Water spigot in front. Easy access to taxiways.


But wait, there's more!

Rickenbacker Guitars, 1965 Vox AC30 Amp, Fender Twin Reverb, Fender Rhodes 73 piano, 60+ Ludwig drums (’60’s - ’70’s), PA Equipment and Mic’s.
All in very good to excellent condition. Prefer pick up at Marfa, Texas rather than shipping.
(Open your own vintage music shop . . . bring a U-Haul and buy it all for the best deal.)
