CH 750 STOL Project

I’ve been working on a Zenith CH 750 STOL for several years, but medical issues make it impossible for me to continue. A couple of years ago a good friend and experienced airplane builder in my EAA chapter took over the project and has brought it to the 90% completed 90% to go stage. Fuselage wings and gear are complete and assembled. Engine is hung but not hooked up. Avionics are now being installed. Work continues and now is an ideal time for the ultimate owner to influence some of the component choices. Most parts are already included in the build, but it’s not too late to make substitutions and selloff unneeded components.

INCLUDED and installed:
Airframe, Zenith Bush wheels, flying surfaces, dual stick kit
Engine– – Lycoming 0-235-C1, 108 to 115 hp, hung only
INCLUDED but not yet installed:
Alternator – – BNC lightweight 40 amp
Doors and windows 
Dynon first generation glass cockpit with Garmin 496 GPS, iCom COM, Garmin transponder
NOT INCLUDED, but may be added over the next couple months. The choice is still open on most of these items:
Skytec lightweight starter
Prop- used metal, new wood or new composite
Ignition - will rebuild original mags or choose between a couple electronic options. 
Upholstery 
Paint
We plan to finish the airplane here this year, but the sooner the new owner is involved, the more choices h/she will have about the final airplane. A buyer who can get to KLEW on a regular basis will not only be able to make these choices, but participate in the build, obtain the repairman’s certificate and possibly pilot part of the flight test hours.  A buyer who cannot visit KLEW regularly but still wishes to finish the airplane could pull the wings and ship it home. 
Because there are so many options, I haven’t set a price. We would need to decide that once we know what you want. 

Pictures will follow to interested parties. You can list what you’d like to see.

Price depends on how much more parts we buy and work we get done.  Flyable without paint or DAR inspection in the low 50s. As-is (still needs prop, ELT, ASDS-B) low 40s. As we progress it could be anywhere between. 

I’m trying to get some pictures, but am being delayed by family business. If you’d like to see them send me your email address; I don’t have the time to learn how to send them through the forum so need to go direct.
