Aircraft ownership isn't cheap, and the PA24 isn't particularly a
maintenance hog. Two years ago I had a ~$100K budget for a new bird; I
spent $60K for a '59 PA24 250 with about 2200 hours and a mid-time
engine, which I flew directly to Aviation Classics. One year, two weeks
and $45K later it emerged with an all new Garman panel, the LoPresti Vne
mod, a few speed mods, rebuild gear and every system inspected and
maintained as necessary.

Any pics of this fine bird?

Happy Flying!
