There's a pair in Fletcher's hangar. They meet the "condition doesn't matter" criteria very well...

It's his name on the hangar but the skis are mine...

They need new bottoms and there's little if any hardware.

They're an older model Federal skis. I'll give you a call next time I'm heading up that way. I'll think about what I want for them...

I have a set of federal skis and step mount plates that came off a 140. Have not really found a need for them in Texas.
