    Description
    Ultra-rare opportunity to own a 1965 Cessna 185D with just ~559 hours total time. This aircraft has been exceptionally cared for by knowledgeable owners and was primarily flown by a single, experienced pilot for most of its life—a pedigree that’s nearly impossible to find. Equipped with a freshly overhauled Continental IO-470 and new propeller, this Skywagon offers a strong foundation with serious upside. The lowest time 185 with a new engine and prop - these don’t come around often.
