This is a 1965 Cessna185D Project for sale with (most likely) the lowest time of any Skywagon in the World!
We are selling this project as our repair shop is currently booked out, otherwise we would take it on ourselves! This aircraft boasts a Lycon Overhauled IO-470 that has been preserved/pickled with 1.9 Hours on it. Not too mention, it also has a brand new Hartzell Scimitar Propeller. What makes the aircraft a project are some corrosion spots on the top skins of the wings and fuselage caused by a leaky hangar roof. These spots can either be address by skin replacement or some sanding. It’s up to the buyer to decide, and we are more than willing to schedule inspections of the aircraft. Other than that, put a coat of paint on it and reassemble. Whether you do the work yourself or have your shop do the work, you will make it out of the other end of the project with a fantastic aircraft with equity for your time and effort. Airframe
