I have two kits for an RV-6. I have a fresh untouched empennage kit and an untouched wing kit. I bought these a few years ago with big plans to have my very own RV-6. I have been a passenger in a couple of them and they are great airplanes. Time and finances get in the way so I must part with them. I am in Minnesota and the kits must be picked up here. I drove to Birmingham, AL to pick up the wing kit. Freight and crating are expensive and very time consuming for me. I did put out a feeler for someone who still had the crates left from a two place build but the ones who did respond had used the crates to build a bench on which to build the airplane. The empennage kit is no longer available from Van's. Everything else is still available from him. The parts are all there. I haven't inventoried them in detail but the ribs, aluminum extrusions, flying surface tips and sheet metal are there. There is a huge bag which contains many small bags of parts, rivets, bolts, and fittings. There are two lengths of aluminum angle about 14' long which is why shipping is difficult. They will fit in a full size van with a little care and coercing. I am asking $3250.00 for the two kits. I will vehemently resist separating them or parting them out. Van's has replacement parts if you need individual parts. For a major repair this might be the ticket for you. If you, or anyone you know, have any interest respond to me directly.
