She was built as a taildragger (I believe) and converted later.

Comes with valid ATF.

For sake of clarity and to avoid misunderstandings - I will be closing the sale of this beauty on Saturday 18 February at midday. At this time, serious buyers will be invited to bid on this aircraft.

All interested parties should make themselves known to me by then.

Hi RV12. Sorry about missing you last week but due to work commitments won't be able get an opportunity soon. Hence I have no option but to let this bargain pass me.
Good luck with your sale. I am confident that you won't have a problem to sell this Baby. Best regards.
