Fun watch. But have to agree with the AP guy in the comments talking about $120K to get the engines rebuilt alone. Might need to be entirely rewired. The airframe itself needs to be verified. The avionics need to be replaced. Some experienced professionals would have to sign off on their speciality as being airworthy and meeting FAA regs. That means them doing the actual work rather than trusting some dude, and thousands of hundred dollar bills.

Cool guy though. I'll bet he can get most anything running again.
