Hi George,

Is it a C-85-12? Can a starter be put on it? Approximate Price?

Thanks - Robert

Robert, it is a C-85-12 and can have a starter installed. If I was going to keep it I would definitely do so of course. I haven't done any research on price but when listed on Barnstormers I thought I would list it in the $23.5-24k range. Appreciate your feedback. Thanks, George

Robert, Thanks, I'll get it touch with him. Franklin is a nice area. We of course are near the Smoky Mountains. Best, George
