I have an ed. 3 STOL 750 that had an 0200 in it originally when built. After 46 hr. on the plane I decided to switch it out for a Viking 130 so now I have a Luga ground adj. 3 blade 72" prop, spinner, cowling (upper & lower), engine mount, baffling, exhaust for an 0200 that I would like to sell. All the above items have 46 hr. on them since new. Will sell seperately or as a package deal. Located in NW Montana. The engine is sold.See More
