Default Great Planes Cherokee 40 kit question


Back then, Great Planes was producing the Cherokee 40 kit,
I'm trying to find a kit of GP Cherokee 40 and my question is what would be a fair price?
Thanks.

I've seen them go for anywhere from $60 to $120 depending on condition. The bottom line is how bad do you want one, how much are you willing to spend?

I've got one that I've been thinking about putting on ebay. I'm like you though in that I don't know what a fair starting price is. I did "completed auctions" but didn't find any.

Most of the older 80's GP kits go for about $120. There's probably not much demand for this one right now due to their really nice ARF version. You can scratch your Cherokee itch with that one for not much more money. $150 I think.

Skylane 42 has an interesting reference site for kit prices at:


http://webpages.charter.net/skylane42/price.html

I didn't see the Geat Planes Cherokee 40 listed.
