Under $30k airplane

[DavidWhite]

So I am looking at potential next airplanes. My mission? To futz. The occasional $100 hamburger and just a few trips more than a couple hundred miles a year. It HAS to be a taildragger and must have atleast 2 seats (cub is really the only tandem I would look at) experimental or certified.

So far I've been thinking either

1. Cessna 140
2. Luscombe
3. Kitfox
4. Pacer
5. Cub

Any other airplanes I'm overlooking - and does anyone know any of these for sale?

A Sonex with a Jabiru engine if you think the AreoVee has too much auto engine pedigree.

How about a Citabria?

Check the typical asking prices.
