Description
Fresh & Comprehensive Annual, LOW time engine!
Sad to put my 1958 J35 up for sale. Growth of my family is requiring a G36 I’m moving to. Bought it for cross country trips for work, and since I’ve owned it I’ve put about 150 “highway hours” on the engine in the last 7 months. Never done a leg shorter than a 1.5 since I’ve owned it, typically flying 3.0 hops. Long story short, this thing is VFR Dream. You cannot go faster (160KTAS) for cheaper (11.5GPH) or in more style (it’s a beautiful V Tail and always gets attention). It’s the perfect combo and I have absolutely loved every second of flying it. I’ll deliver the plane with a fresh annual and free of squawks!
Asking $58,069

Airframe Notes
Plane currently has a single-throw yoke, which I prefer because the passenger has a TON of space. My wife can have her laptop and puppy on her lap in the copilot seat with no issues.

IFR capable (I’d throw a GPS in it if you planned on doing that)
I'm a commercial, multi-engine rated pilot and can verify the VOR and ILS/LOC work perfectly in Nav 1. Nav 2 is seemingly INOP. Long story short if you went VFR on top and were in a bind you could fly an ILS no problem.

No damage history, however very very light hail damage is visible on some parts of the wing. Not visible anywhere else. If I didn’t tell you you’d never know, as you have to be at just the right angle and right light to see it. Does not affect regular appearance in any way. My understanding is previous to my ownership the plane spent a couple weeks uncovered in Colorado, and that’s when this happened. I'm been very generous to this bird, so you won't have to be! $15k put into it in the last 12 months! She's a beaut.
