Description
VANS RV- 8 A great project, a ton of time spent so far in building this great RV 8 aircraft. Has most everything needed to finish and paint to your desired colors. The Lycoming 0360, and the Sensenich propeller are being sold as a Experimental Core. Neither one has logbooks, if you wish not to purchase the engine and propeller there will be a $10k discount of asking price.
