Super Cub Components Aplenty
It's a formidable
collection... and pieces of it could be yours. CubCrafters
announced Monday it would begin selling its 27-year collection of
used, pre-owned and even ‘new old stock’ Super Cub and
similar parts through online auction site eBay.
“Earlier this year we began preparing to utilize eBay to
sell so very many Super Cub parts we have acquired over nearly
three decades of repairing, restoring and rebuilding Super Cubs. We
have simply been storing this growing inventory for years and we
are getting more frequent calls than ever asking if we have a
particular used part," said CubCrafters President Todd Simmons
said. "The truth is we literally have several commercial containers
full of parts not to mention that many again stored in various
places around the facility.
"Ultimately, we’ll get listed just about anything and
everything that ever went on a Super Cub, e.g. engines and engine
components, landing gear, cowlings, instruments, control surfaces,
wings and wing tips, tail feathers, wheels, tires, brakes,
hardware, and much more.”
Simmons said the company will add new parts on a regular basis,
so interested parties would do well to check the site often.
“I know many owners and shops would like to know every
part or piece that we will eventually put up for sale, but
we’ll ask for patience and frequent visits to ebay to see the
most current listings," Simmons said. "We are going to do our best
to get the most accurate descriptions, detailed photographs and
other key descriptive information for each listing. That effort
will take some time but our goal is to put several more items up
for bid every few days over the coming weeks.”
