I have one for you... about to be on the market too.
1955 Piper Apache with Geronimo conversion
Refurbished piper interior maroon / white with tan carpet and matching pillows, headliner carpet and seats very very good condition and quite comfortable!
"new" glass (2003- 2004?)
2003 custom panel with nice digital avionics suite, dual nav/com, king KT-76C transponder (nice) all new instruments Airpseed, Attitude, DG, Altimeter, Turn & Bank, VSI the works (as of 2004) with 3 place intercom, Garmin 396 color moving map hard wired to electrical system, digital tachs, digital EGT/CHT engine trend monitors with "lean finder", electric backup gyro suction,
2 **factory new** engines (approximately 250 hours total time each to date since 2003?) 160HP conversions
2 **factory new** props
**2005 paint** looks awesome Burgundy, and matterhorn white with gold and silver trim designed the scheme myself
fresh out of very extensive* annual by not more than 2 or 3 weeks
new and refab fuel bladders
Entire hydraulic system replaced with all new components in 2003-2004
only damage history was a right main gear folded up during taxi (pre-1965) and the ailerons were replaced at some point in the aircraft's life as a paint strip revealed pea sized hail dings on the ailerons but nowhere else on the plane (tells me these ailerons came off another geronimo you cant see them after painted - very very minor)
very cool airplane for a flight school or to build a couple of hundred hours in and then sell it. Appraisal sits at around $85,000 pics to be posted soon
