Cessna 172
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:12212443 | Make: Cessna 172 |
1960 Cessna 172A for Sale. Hangered at KBQK Brunswick GAPlane is in terrific condition and well taken care of. Paint is 7/8 out of 10 with nice shine, Interior and updated panel are pretty much perfect and one of the nicest you will find in a Cessna of this year. Well It’s happened! As much as I love her I am transitioning to complex plane. Plane has no damage history and flys hands off with nice balance and the engine just purrs like a sewi...ng machine. (The 6 cylinder continentals are bulletproof smooth running engines). I finished up my license in this plane in 07 and have enjoyed flying all over GA and Florida. Never used as a trainer or leased out. All logbooks from the day she flew out of the Cessna factory. Plane is out of annual and I will be getting full annual done in the next 2 weeks. Also comes with full perfect condition cabin/window cover and cowl plugs. (The nice one that covers fuel caps on wings and side windows). This is a clean straight well taken care of plane that is just a blast to fly with no issues. No corrosion. I welcome any buyer to come look at plane prior to bidding. She will be ready for flying in a few weeks with complete annual (will be a complete annual and I suspect new battery, transponder battery and pitot static check.) So I am listing early on eBay for interested buyers. Last annual all comps in mid to high 70’s. First year of swept tail with fastback and higher landing gear struts. Only the 1960 172A has this combo and all those Cessna folks know it makes her near neck breaking speed along with the Cessna landomatic you will be guaranteed perfect landings..... (smile)There is a YouTube video of her flying, look for video (Flying a Cessna 172 - Brunswick St. Simons Island Sunset Cruise).4323 TT1206 SMOH271 STOHContinental O-300-C Rolls Royce 145HPMcCauley PropHangeredClear Glass And Rosen visors Perfect InteriorNew front seat belts with shoulder harnessUpdated panel and newer instruments with modern attitude and DIKlaxon breakers (no fuses)New modern throttle mixture controlsConcord batteryNarco 12D Navcom W/VORKING transponder W/mode C4place flightcom intercom push to talk on both yokesSlick Mags with newer plug wires and tempest plugsFactory rebuilt strobeSTC’d fiberglass performance wingtipsAll tires have are like new with 20 or so landings.
