That would have been nice 50 yrs ago. This guy is about 2 generations
advanced from your choices, with 180 hp, glass panel, etc.

A couple of guys parked this beautiful Piper PA-18 Super Cub and left
the airport, so I took a look at the airplane. I appears to have been
rebuilt in Experimental Category to allow modifications. I noted a
modern panel, doors on both sides, what appears to be a baggage
compartment door on the left side, and a custom Mattituck TMX 360
version of the Lycoming 180 hp engine. It also has drooped wing tips of
modern design. Everything one needs to go for a $200 hamburger!

Many, many years ago I had thoughts of owning my own airplane, and I had
come up with:
1. PA-18 Super Cub
2. Full greenhouse cabin
3. Manual flaps
4. Balloon tyres
5. 150HP Lycoming
6. Variable pitch prop
7. Dual VHF Com/Nav radios
8. LF/MF ADF receiver
9. Suction-operated backup horizon, etc.
