1989 PIPER PA-18 SUPER CUB

Description

Detailed Description One of the Last 100 Piper PA-18-150 Super Cubs Ever Built This exceptional Piper PA-18-150 Super Cub is one of the final 100 Super Cubs produced by Piper and is believed to be among the lowest-time examples available on the market today. The current owner acquired the aircraft in 2016 and entrusted CubCrafters with a comprehensive restoration and upgrade. Completed in July 2016 at just 269.8 hours total airframe time, the project was executed to the highest standards, with no expense spared. The result is an outstanding Super Cub that combines the authenticity of a late-production Piper aircraft with the craftsmanship and performance enhancements of one of the world's premier Cub builders. In 2023, the aircraft sustained landing damage and was returned to CubCrafters for professional repair. Once again, no expense was spared to ensure the aircraft was restored to the same exceptional standard established during its 2016 restoration. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the last Piper Super Cubs ever manufactured, featuring remarkably low total time and a meticulous restoration and repair history performed by CubCrafters. For the discerning buyer seeking pedigree, quality, and exclusivity, this aircraft represents an exceptional offering.
