Yes, I purchased this 1960 Champ 7GC "Sky-Trac" Greenhouse model with the O-290 (140HP) as it had been in a residential garage for nearly 30 years!!!!, these are the pics as I was able to roll it out, amazingly the tires held air and the wheels and brakes were free as I rolled it outside for some much needed fresh air and sunshine.
It was transported to a hangar at FL10 and later this week I've got an appointment with an A&P to see where I stand with it as a project and what budget I need to start saving for. During an initial pre-buy Borescope 2 of the cylinders look good while the other 2 have some concern so we will hopefully know more soon.
Anyone with any Champ restoration experience I welcome your comments, feedback and/or suggestions!!!!, Thanks and have a great day!!!
