1978 Piper Super Cub PA-18

Overview
N82598 is a 1978 Piper PA-18-150 powered by a 160 HP Lycoming O-320-A2B. With just 1,394.96 hours on both the airframe and engine since new and no significant damage history, it stands out as one of the most original, low-time, late model, Super Cubs you’ll find. It features a Tanis engine pre-heat system, Steve’s double puck brakes, Oregon Aero seats, a McCauley Borer prop, and numerous CubCrafters upgrades including a 2,000 lb gross weight STC, 3″ extended gear, a combination fuel storage belly tank, and multiple interior refinements.

At under $130K, this PA-18 is an exceptional value. Ready for its next owner, whether you’re a collector seeking authenticity or a pilot looking for a proven backcountry performer. Rarely does a Super Cub with this combination of originality, low time, and documented clean history come to market.
