61 Cessna 210 40 SMOH For Auction

I just listed another 1961 Cessna 210A on ebay for auction. This one
has 40 since major overhaul on the engine, accessories, systems, and
one year since new paint and leather interior. Reserve price is less
that 2/3 of the AOPA appraisal value, so you can fly away with a no-
problems at a very attractive price.

Equipped with a good King GPS/Com and Mode C (the keepers), but not
anyone ELSE's idea of a dream radio stack (the boat anchors). That
means you don't have to pay extra for all the ten year old radios the
seller liked, then have to take them out, then have to get rid of them
at a loss, to only then be able to put in your dream radio stack.

Owner/seller/pilot of this aircraft is an IA and major airline
maintenance inspector. This is a nice airplane that will FLY instead
of sit in a maintenance shop. Evidence of this is the fact that the
seller will cheerfully deliver the airplane anywhere in North America
for fuel and expenses.

You listed the same one and it's still a turd. That panel is god awful.

1) Since when is rec.aviation.ifr a place to advertise airplanes?

2) Why would any sane buyer purchase an airplane with an engine rebuilt by a guy
who _knew_ he would be selling it?

It isn't, but some people simply have no regard for others.

They wouldn't, but then if they have the same IQ as the guy spamming
this newsgroup then....

What's with the "Sarah" and "Jack" embroidered on the seats? Sure must be
hard finding a buyer with the same names.

No, Professor Einstein, it was a different one. Cessna made two or
three 210's if you were not aware. The owner has three and asked me to
auction two.

Please explain and substantiate your statements about the plane being
a turd. First, where and when did you see it, because I didn't meet
anyone out there, or speak to anyone, who thought it was a turd.
Second, what did you think was less than normal for a 46 year old
airplane? Be specific.

If you want to debate this in detail, I'm game, mostly because I take
some pride in not misrepresenting anything I sell.

And for whatever it means, the instrument panel is not what keeps an
aircraft in the air... some folks think an airplane is a vehicle to
lift $20K of avionics off the ground and some of us remember what
flying is about.

In most old airplanes, a good panel can cost more than the entire rest
of the airplane. G

That $20k of avionics sure can add lots of utility in IFR and
difficult airspace, as well.
