I know I posted this last week, but I have more information and pictures. This is not your average scratch build project. All the parts are CNC cut and many are pre-drilled. I am asking $3000 for all. Much more invested. Check out the pictures:

Original post
After starting this project from a tail kit, I decided to switch to scratch building. I remember hearing Mark Townsend say “scratch build because you love building. Don’t scratch build to save money. If you do, you will go nuts!” Well, truer words have never been spoken. This scratch building thing is for people with more patients than me. Also, I have decided I really want a float plane. I am going to purchase a kit that is a little better suited to that.
If you want a big jump on scratch building, let me know. I have the following and more:
• Corvair engine core – inspected by William Wynne at Corvair day at the Zenith factory. He said it looks good but it needs a valve job.
• Corvair motor mount – purchased from William Wynne at Corvair day.
• Empennage assembled from Kit
• Almost all sheet metal parts. Most parts already cut out and formed.
• Forming blocks.
• Corvair conversion manual.
• Zenith Zodiac 601XL plans.
• Homebuilt help scratch building basics DVD.
You really only need the extruded aluminum and a lot of patience to build this airframe. If you are really interested, contact me off list at johnrhines(at)gmail.com. I have some pictures on my website at www.johnsplane.com or I can send you more detailed pics.
Thanks,
John
