I didn't look this good at 51: https://maine.craigslist.org/cto/d/unit ... 64497.html

This is more what I looked like at 53: https://maine.craigslist.org/pts/d/mech ... 99572.html

I guess he's only interested in selling the wing: https://maine.craigslist.org/pts/d/clas ... 14033.html

I'm guessing this one will require a tow/flatbed to get home, but at this price...: https://maine.craigslist.org/pts/d/port ... 39334.html

Another tow-me-home. With the fuel pump out, no way of knowing whether it actually will run. But, at this price...: https://nh.craigslist.org/cto/d/effingh ... 16501.html

Not that many to begin with: https://boston.craigslist.org/sob/pts/d ... 91072.html
