Hi Folks,

I'm in the process of purchasing a 1940 J-3C-65.

I'm looking for a little bit of advice for a new Cub owner. (Things you wish you knew then.)

As far as the airplane goes:

15 Hours SMOH four years ago, chrome cyinders so no corrosion issues. Sealed struts, Ceconite in 92', always hangared. NE-1 with all the paperwork back to the factory. Cleveland wheels/brakes, Cub yellow.

As far as I go:

I used to instruct in this one years ago, so I'm pretty familiar with this particular Cub.

Got a hangar all lined up, so if everything is completed this weekend, I should take possesion around Tuesday of next week.
