1949 Piper Stinson 108-3

3,018 TT, 402 SMOH, Franklin 165, Annual May 2026, auto gas STC, added bonus…logbook entries from Mr William Piper himself. Story is that this plane was tore down at Pipers headquarters and that’s where Piper came up with the Piper Pacer. I’m also letting another Franklin 165 go with this sell. Everything is there except for the crank. I’d be interested in trading for a Citabria if the right one came along.

From the Web…

Piper bought the Stinson operation from Consolidated Vultee in late 1948. Piper inherited a substantial number of completed or nearly completed 108-3s and marketed them as “Piper-Stinson” aircraft. AOPA reports that Piper acquired about 375 finished but unsold airplanes and renamed them Piper Stinsons.
