    Description
    Project Plane! Big Price Drop! A blockage in the crankcase vent caused crankcase pressurization and oil flow disruption, resulting in multiple engine component failures; the Continental E-225-8 engine will require further teardown and likely an IRAN or overhaul. The current owner elected not to pursue the repair, creating an opportunity for a buyer to restore and return this classic V-tail Bonanza to service. This 1955 Beechcraft F35 Bonanza (N4228B), located at Conroe, TX (KCXO), is being offered as a project aircraft with 8,006 hours total time and complete logbooks.
