Some damage history in the 60's prior to the PA owner. Complete logs. No hail. No corrosion. If you want a turn-key ready to go 185 in which everything works that already has ADSB, this is it. Low time and excellent condition. The 260 HP IO-470 is considerably more powerful that an 0-470 that is in a 180, but is not quite the 520 that is in the 1966 and later 185's.
