Everybody here has a pretty good idea what Cubs are worth.

And most of us fly them not only because they're fantastic little airplanes, but because they're cheap to own and operate.

I think the highest price I've ever seen a Cub advertised for sale is around $65K or $70K.

What's the most you would pay for "The perfect Cub" (whatever that is to you given the following conditions)?

Conditions: 65 h.p. engine, no electrics, no float fittings, no wing tanks, complete logs, matching serial numbers on everything, restoration done by careful, competent, anal retentive mechanics, and virtually all new hardware.

If you're restrained by money, how much would you theoretically pay for that same airplane if money were no object?
