Comments
1980 Piper PA-18 180 Super Cub Certified – One of a kind and the best presented Super Cub in the world.
This is a rare opportunity to own a masterfully restored Super Cub. Following a
four-year, tip-to-tail restoration completed in 2023
, no expense was spared in bringing this aircraft to better-than-new condition. With every relevant STC upgrade installed and a significant price reduction as the owner moves to a 6-seat aircraft, this is the premier backcountry machine on the market. Similar in the US market, if you can find one, sell for about $700kAUD
