I know where there's a kit fox in an old barn. Been there for 20 something yrs. It is complete. Rotax engine.



Covering and all.



How much should I offer them?

Good link for pricing I'd give you a direct link but the site prevents it. Go to browse ads, experimental and then kitfox.



A twenty year old kitfox is OLD by comparison to what they are putting out. I'd guess its a model 3 or 4 if your lucky.

They are a lot of fun if your not a big guy or only plan to fly solo.



A lot depends on the engine and avionics. I'd guess it would go for less than 10K, maybe less than 7 depending on certain things. If you in the northwest, I'd be happy to look and give you a better idea.

Diesel RV-8 in progress

Thanks. It probably is worth less than average, due to high humidity in Arkansas. The frame has a light covering of rust, and is not perfect.
