This 1981 Piper Super Cub, offered at $138,750, presents a compelling option for the backcountry enthusiast or traditional tailwheel pilot. The airframe has accumulated 14,015 total hours, while the low-time Lycoming O-320 engine has just 60 hours since a major overhaul. The aircraft features a metal belly skin, metal ailerons, a 3-inch gear extension for a 1,800-pound gross weight, and an aft fuselage lug. It was recovered in Ceconite and repainted in 2009, and has been consistently hangared, with new seat upholstery completing the interior refresh. The seller describes it as government-owned with no expenses spared.
