1966 C-172 For Auction

I have listed another aircraft on ebay for one of my airport
naighbors, this one is a 1966 Cessna 172G with 795 SMOH, in annual and
ready to fly right now. This is NOT a show quality plane, it DOES have
major damage history, and it AIN'T perfect. It is not embarrassing in
any way, it's just a cheap family cruiser or time builder only. This
one should go fairly cheap (as 172's go), and will provide many
hundreds or even thousands of hours of cheap, reliable flying.

If you're an avionics-porno addict, this one ain't for you. It's a
plain vanilla VFR cruiser with nothing worth writing home about in the
panel.

As I wrote in the auction description, lay a $250 handheld GPS on top
of the glareshield and you will arrive at your destination with the
same precision as a $200K+ new 172, but you will have $170,000 or so
more in your pocket than Mister Full Retail has in his pocket. Perhaps
that chunk of money will relieve some of the agony of not keeping up
with the avionics Joneses.

You can put that $170K into private school for your kids... and the
guy who mortgaged his house for the new 172 will have to ship his kids
off to public school... and then HE will have to endure the heartache
of seeing HIS kids contorting their little hands into incomprehensible
gang signals as they are assisted into the back of the police car.

Better bid on this 172 in a hurry. Don't do it for me, do it for the
sake of your children....
