There's a REALLY nice '51 A-model for sale at Creve Coeur Airport in St. Louis. Shoot me an email at my screen name at yahoo.com, and I'll forward the owner's name to you.
That is one nice bird!! Its out of my budget, but really nice!!
Thank You!!

I only expect to do one or two major XC's a year in the 400-700nm range. Best way to sum it up is my wife wants to be able to load it up and take our family of 3 to Florida for vacation, I want to have a "fun" aircraft that will get me in and out of some "fun" areas.
Just to ad my 2-cents, our 170 has served as a great "family truckster" for our own 3-person family for the last 5 years, including vacation travel from Ohio to Florida and multiple other states. You won't be disappointed!
