What's a fast build 320 worth?>> Five bucks, and I'll pick it up, and I'll be there tomorrow!!!! Well, maybe a little more. The Legacy is a much more complete kit but goes for $40K, and ask any of the depositors how long it takes to get one. Sure, the Legacy is nicer since it is more complete, but this barely-been-touched fast build 360 might be the only game in town for someone who wants to join the Lancair community but can't pony up $40K to start. Lancair, in their infinite wisdom (?), has made a conscious decision to service the high end customer exclusively. It's hard to argue with their strategy when they're selling the kits faster than they can make them. However, it's a little sad to realize that someone in the financial position I was in when I bought my kit in 1994 cannot join the club anymore. (This may be where RV builders come from...) The super fast build 320 was the pinnacle of the pre-Legacy 2-place kits, and there won't be any more. It's every bit as fine a product as it was a few years ago. I'd value a non-started 320 super fast build with the Mark 2 tail and extended engine mount and cowl at between $15K and $20K. I'd ask $20K and settle happily for $15K. But if you get no offers, remember, five bucks and I'll be there with my trailer in 24 hours! - Rob Wolf >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
