A 1947 vintage Bonanza in fine condition. A comment from someone who knew this aircraft well - the aircraft was rebuilt in the 1960's with its first flight after the rebuild on 24 Nov 1967. It has a spar from an A model Bonanza instead of the original tubular spar found in the original model 35. The skin on the wings is thicker than the original factory skin. I dimpled a ton of rivet holes. In the early 50's it flipped over on its' back behind an Ozark Airlines DC-3 that was running up in Springfield, Missouri. It was purchased from the insurance company and sat in a garage in Chicago for years.
