Thanks for all the replies.

I've been checking Trade-A-Plane frequently; and have gotten some pictures of 337's in our price range. I think it might be smarter to go ahead and spend the extra money to get a plane that's at-least in ferry-able condition.

As you can guess, 10-20K will get you a 337 that's sat, with it's wings off, in a corn field for 10 years.
