1948 Stinson 108-3Single-Engine Piston Aircraft • New Richmond, WI, USA
This 1948 Stinson 108-3, registered as NC233M, represents an exceptional, award-winning restoration with only 260 hours total time since its comprehensive rebuild. The aircraft was converted to a 108-5 configuration with a 180 HP Franklin L6A-335-B1 engine by the iconic Butch Walsh and Franklin engine expert George Heinley, who was also a former owner. This work included a zero-time engine and a zero-time C-21 McCauley propeller with a Woodward governor. The airframe was completely rebuilt in the mid-1990s through 1999, involving a stripped and inspected fuselage, new Superflite fabric, new systems, and a full refurbishment of accessories...
