Built in 1965, restored around 2010. 600ish TT, Continental C65 w/ metal prop 400ish SMOH done at restoration, starts on first flip and burns no oil. Climbs about 800FPM, 100mph cruise, wood wings and steel tubing fuselage. This is a very strong and well-made airplane. Fun to fly airplane it flies a lot like a clipped wing cub. The covering is excellent and was redone when it was restored. The motor alone is worth the price. You’re not going to fit in this thing if you are overweight, unfit or more than 6’2”.
Neat little toy for the right person.
15k, in central Florida.

The first letter in the name is actually a stylized "C". As in, Corbin.
I own a Corbin Jr Ace, which is a side-by-side two place. Loads of fun.
You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a local area airplane.
I have flown mine as far as Utah from Central Washington.
