myself (A&P) and some other A&P buddies from work have been looking into getting into restorations. Your channel has proved our dream is possible! Keep up the excellent work.
That "Piper Aire" window decal means that plane originally had AC. Over the years folks have to choose to keep fixing leaks and issues or they delete it and get the useful load back. You may have a deleted AC bird.
very few birds out there that had this kind of care and attention. cowl plugs and canopy covers will get you a long way . but flying it on a regular basis would be so much better, too. nice find. nice recovery. keep up the good work.
Y’all need to check out an old Baron out at KFNL in Colorado N9BS. Has been sitting abandoned for at least 10 maybe 15 years. I think the owner died and it’s been sitting on our ramp ever since.
A line from the vintage TV series Then Came Bronson intro- " Man, I wish I was you." Very fitting here. Congrats on the purchase and thanks for taking us along.
and …. click. Lycoming sitting equals cam lobes dry. My cam went bad and the core is still sitting in my hangar. Only way I knew was it didn’t make full RPM on run up. Oil analysis didn’t catch it. When I took my old engine to Lycon and they pulled cylinders, the piston skirts looked galvanized from all the cam shavings. The aluminum skirts absorbed the cam shavings. I use Aeroshell 100 plus but the damage was done by the airplane sitting in South Texas before I bought it and then not flying enough to keep the cam lubed. I would be very watchful for cam wear. Nice chatting with you and Joe at Osh and thank you for being so gracious with your time. Fly safe.
Fist of all thank you Jason for posting the planes progress in the 401, i have been interested in how things work as i look up in the sly and see air craft flying above me and thinking what would it take to fly these things, so buy looking at this Rebuild Rescue, Man i have learned a Lot!!!! OMG it's just Fabulous. I also love the accent of Americans too. So thanks to Sam Ganow for letting you work on the plane that is Free, well in a sense it's not so quite free as if you want this to fly again and to unlike a car, OMG it is expensive so a lot off $$$$$$$ to be made in getting the parts and of course time to work on the plane as to look at other small planes to not just buy but to fix them and sell them for to fund in 401. I understand it's a Cessener Phoenix 401. i have a small air port that is close to me as that is in Tyabb Morning peninsula Melbourne Australia. I am a land lubber (so wingless) as i have watched your videos and learned a lot, also thanks to Kay, wow what a looker!!! love to learn to fly with Kay!! LOL the Queen of checking everything. So thank you Jason and Joe that works for you, Joe you will like Tyabb airport as there's some war planes there with Merlin engines V12's😁😅
I know of an airplane that's been sitting for years at the Local airport down here in Monahans Texas. Crop duster that hasn't moved in years, other than an occasional push about and re tie it down, it has been in the same spot. Not sure if it's one you would even look at. Have a great time and I enjoy watching your videos. I wish I could have gotten my license before.
I dunno man, that Cirrus was more than a basket case. The avionics alone would eat the profit from this plane. That said, he sold the 140 and this plane would be far better for bouncing around to other airports.
You guys are Great!! Just wondering if and when we will see some bots afloat, and sold, and some planes flying and sold, to keep this going!!! More progress and less corrosion!!!
Learned to fly, did my first solo and trained 100's of students in these way way way back in the day. Nice to see one being bought back so it can continue on, good work.
I had guessed maybe a 5 percent chance that the battery had any juice at all, but when I saw the way the cylinders looked, I was figuring a good 95% chance of the engine starting. The initial turn-over was really disappointing, until you remembered you had turned the external power-pack off and corrected that mistake. That plane was stored PROPERLY!. I hope that it gives a very nice return on your invested money and labor, and has minimal ADs and other issues that need to be dealt with to bring it to compliance with modern standards.
Well done guys, I'd call that a WIN! Fit new Radios, Tyres, Battery and some "spit 'n' polish" on the outside and she's good to go... Greetings from Perth, West Australia. Cheers, Frank.
The dealer lays the cards and you pick up your hand only finding out when you turn the cards over. well the dealer smiled on you for this one nicely done crack on
A&P here, for future reference all the key does is un-grounds the magnetos so they fire. So if the key doesn’t work just pull the wires off the back of it and go. Don’t ask me how I know lol. Anyways love your videos man I enjoy all of your projects from boats to planes!
@@benjaminsunderland2336 In the case of this Warrior, the key also provides for energizing the starter relay when in the “Start” position. Kind of hard to start it from the cockpit without the key. Looks like he got the pins and cylinder of the keyswitch freed up with the kroil. With a functioning ignition switch, he had the redundancy of shutting the engine down if something went wrong with the mixture cable. Otherwise he would have had to remove the p leads and manually ground the (non hot) lead on the starter relay coil to start. That does not sound like much fun.
Big Howdy from Sydney Australia. That piper is a "diamond in the rough" for sure. Would have been nice to see a cylinder compression test. Should be a good plane. 🌏🛩️
That was me! I grew up on the scent of Kroil!! He's gone now, Dad always filched cans of Kroil from Georgia Pacific in Bellingham, WA. GP is also gone from Bellingham. Dad was an Instrument Repair/Maintenance Technician there. Looks like you need new tires, Jason. Kroil works its magic again!
I'm grinning ear to ear when that battery actually had some life in it! Bigger grin when it fired up!! Was hoping you'd taxi it, you didn't disappoint!!!
I owned a 79 Warrior, so also a -161, and they are just great planes. Not sure how many started out with AC installed, but I’ve never seen one with AC still in the plane, I suspect the climb/weight penalty was just too severe.
You guys were overdue having this kind of luck! Looks like you got a good deal and I can't wait to see it fly again. Battery, tire and an annual is about all it needs except for the cosmetics.
Great to see how easily you got this plane fired up and looking good. I'm right now trying to do the same on an Evector Sportstar that has been sitting in Queensland for about the same amount of time. Like yours my bore still has the hone cross hatching and it has good oil pressure. After washing off the moss and lichen it's looking good. Now I just need to find who has the keys and logbook.
You can tell someone cared for that aircraft. Im glad your going to continue that care and get her in the air.
Exactly the opposite of the Cirrus he bought..
Absolutely! That looks really good for sitting that long.
I wanna see more on the Cirrus!
@@sebastianbenner977 same
And the 401.
@@imigistx yeh
I think they should just take the engine out of it and junk it, the airframe looks too moist, rotten and sunbaked to work.
But I might be mistaken.
We at XeVision offered to "help" with the Landing light system damaged on that Cirrus, we made that HID original system.
wow what a fortunate find, a plane in this kinda wonderful condition. thank your lucky stars

Nice rescue!
Thank you Brother!👍🏻
Buen trabajo...congratulation
May the force be with you.
Awesome find on that airplane. Another amazing Saturday morning. Thank you for all you do, guys. Weekends wouldn't be the same without you
Thank you for being apart of the Rescue Crew, your support means a lot to us👍🏻
Hey, cowl intake plugs ! A good thing. And great to have the canopy to shade you.
That "Piper Aire" window decal means that plane originally had AC. Over the years folks have to choose to keep fixing leaks and issues or they delete it and get the useful load back. You may have a deleted AC bird.
That's exactly what I thought when I saw the deal. Pain in the butt to work on if you need to. Looks like it was a clean de-mod to fresh air (aire?)

Woow what great find. $20,000 what a great bird. Give it some 430 and it might be a great IFR trainer. Please do show us what you make of it.
Absolutely beautiful brother. Congrats on what should be a huge win.
Awesome vids! maybe show use the valves when you boroscope? Thanks!!
What a great deal good luck
Thank you for stopping by the channel!
I LOVE that it has an ADF
A line from the vintage TV series Then Came Bronson intro- " Man, I wish I was you." Very fitting here. Congrats on the purchase and thanks for taking us along.
well done! great purchase.!
Great find! Great Buy! Great job getting it fired up! This one should be a good sell and make some $ for the 401!
Did my first solo and first few lessons on one of these. Magic memories. :)
NICE!!! A bargain at three time the price. I can't wait to see her fly again.
Thank you for watching !
Excellent find Jason. This will make money for the organization certainly. $$$$$$

Glad to see you put a air plane video back on...
More to come!
@@rebuildrescue Hey, you can't go wrong with me because I love boats almost as much as airplanes!
@@rebuildrescue Fly it like "you stole it" 😃
Glad to see your canopy!
Great find, great job!!👌😊
Thank you Jerry👍🏻
by far the best rebuild rescue is joe. you couldn't sell that guy for a million bucks now 🤩
Awesome find I’m so jealous!! Good luck with her!
Thank you Frank !
This one would have even made Sam smile! Nice job, gents.
Fantastic Video , very good Job , congratulations
Thank you!
Awesome find! Took my first flight in one of those and they’re still one of my favorites! Can’t wait to see it back in the air!
That's awesome! We can't wait to see her fly
Most excellent and thanks once again. Very nice find.

Great find, and a great deal for sure. That can be a nice little plane with some TLC.
Jason, looks like this one will make up for the Cirrus. Sweet deal for sure! Can't wait to see that one fly.
I dunno man, that Cirrus was more than a basket case. The avionics alone would eat the profit from this plane.
That said, he sold the 140 and this plane would be far better for bouncing around to other airports.
What a great find! Throw a 530w in there and you got a GREAT all around trainer.
Congrats guys! You needed a win. FWIW, I like all the content. Boats, Planes, all of it. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Brother, we appreciate that !
Nice meeting you guys @ Osh! Really enjoy your channel!
Good to meet you !
Nice save 😅
What about the 40 hmm… 409?? Hmm can’t remember. Just teasing but still waiting for the first plane. She needs to get in the air!
I trained in one of those, great find👍🏻✈️🇺🇸🍺
Joes Teeth look great! Nice smile.
WOW! That just maybe just short of a real-life miracle!
Metallic. AC/DC awesome
wOW!!! LOOKING AT HER...I feel all tingly ...I loved fling Warriors sort of like a poor mans WW2 fighter. ITHINK YOU GOT A WINNER!! GREAT VIDEO!!
Taper wing Warrior !
Needs a turbo LS in it but with a strong o-320 this Piper will fly for years just the way she is !
@@rebuildrescue yep...
🐦 ❤️
You nailed a good plane! Congrats you guys!
Thank you for watching and supporting!
Great job, Guys
Glad you enjoyed it!

What a great find! And for 20k, looks like a steal. Congrats
Thank you!
normal price many many million plane at all airport have.
Another great save.... what a deal!
You guys are on a roll, boats and planes..yeah. Thanks
Awesome purchase!

Nice to get a win for a change .
That's a sweet deal and a great 👍 👌 plane 😀
What a sweet deal. Congrats on an easy project.
Thank you Randal!
I just love seeing success! Thank you!
Have you done the lottery this week.? A1 rescue.
Any updates on the cirrus aircraft ?? Would love that series
Update coming on the Cirrus soon. Tons of new parts needed for that one !
I had guessed maybe a 5 percent chance that the battery had any juice at all, but when I saw the way the cylinders looked, I was figuring a good 95% chance of the engine starting. The initial turn-over was really disappointing, until you remembered you had turned the external power-pack off and corrected that mistake.
That plane was stored PROPERLY!. I hope that it gives a very nice return on your invested money and labor, and has minimal ADs and other issues that need to be dealt with to bring it to compliance with modern standards.
More like use in place of 0whiskey which they sold
Wow! Did a fly along in one at stead NV long ago. Beautiful lil plane, wouldn't know what to do if I had one. But awesome.
Well done guys, I'd call that a WIN! Fit new Radios, Tyres, Battery and some "spit 'n' polish" on the outside and she's good to go... Greetings from Perth, West Australia. Cheers, Frank.
I wish I could have this. It‘s so nice!
Thank you for the video.
Thank you for watching 👍🏻
Good call FINALLY getting a tent fly for over the engine guys!
Congrats on a good deal guys!
Thank you👍🏻
The dealer lays the cards and you pick up your hand only finding out when you turn the cards over. well the dealer smiled on you for this one nicely done crack on
Fun to see your good fortune! Enjoy!
Thank you Brother !
Nice work 👍
That was quite a steal at that price, and the condition it's in. Someone surely looked after it very well ❤

Should be a good plane.

I trained and got my licence in a Warrior II at St. Catharines Ontario (CYSN), and flew them almost exclusively. I miss it more than anything now!
I want to see something on that gorgeous cx500 custom in your hanger.😊
Yes, I definitely noticed the CX too! A lovely smooth sounding engine I seem to remember when my brother inlaw had one in the early 90s.
Oh please mention the Music that get's played on the videos as they sound Great!!
Nice to see an easy win every now and then!
Joe’s really becoming the Co-host! Nice!!! 😁
Kroil for the win. I learned about Kroil when I was in the Navy in another life, in another century. I've had it in my shop ever since.
Congratulations! You guys needed a win!
That was me! I grew up on the scent of Kroil!! He's gone now, Dad always filched cans of Kroil from Georgia Pacific in Bellingham, WA. GP is also gone from Bellingham. Dad was an Instrument Repair/Maintenance Technician there.
Looks like you need new tires, Jason. Kroil works its magic again!
Unfortunately, Kroil is not approved on Certified Aircraft. You should be using LPS2.
I'm grinning ear to ear when that battery actually had some life in it! Bigger grin when it fired up!!
Was hoping you'd taxi it, you didn't disappoint!!!
@@dans_Learning_Curve I was so surprised it had any juice in it at all !
Glad you joined us for this rescue 👍🏼
@@rebuildrescue did it eventually take a charge?
I spray Kroil in the air even if I'm not working on anything rusty. It just sets the mood

I started my flight training in a PA28-161 in 1977. It’s a great airplane!
Shortest rebuild rescue video ever! Lol no drama
COOL Plane !.👍👍👍
Nice catch 😊
I cannot wait for the 401 to get fixed
What kind of sorcery is this? No bird nests? Must be divine intervention!
good to see you catch a break for once...
Agreed!!
