Another amazing value from Long Aviation of Rock Hill, SC....This 1978 Cessna 172 was pampered as a Sherriff"s surveillance airplane for the last 20+ years until we bought it and civilianized it.Times: 2323 Total Time (!!!) and just 835 since NEW 180 HP Lycoming O-360-A4M.

We rate the paint an 8 out of 10.Interior: New Airtex interior side panels and lots of new interior plastic trim. The seat upholstery is older, but is in GREAT shape. We rate the interior an 8 out of 10. We can re-upholster the seats in a high-end synthetic leather for $1500. Avionics: IFR equipped with AUTOPILOT!! Dual RT-385"s, one with glideslope. KN-64 DME. Cessna mode C transponder and Cessna audio panel.
