SOLD!

Offered for sale is a relatively low-time, well-cared for and tastefully upgraded '52 C35 Bonanza. This has been one of the most dependable aircraft I have flown. I have flown her faithfully to many destinations throughout the Carolinas and to the northeast and back to visit family and friends. With the tips and mains filled, I can fly non-stop from South Carolina to northeast Pennsylvania and land with several hours of fuel on board. She has been continuously hangar-kept, even while away on trips. All logs complete since factory new.

Some nice things about the fuel system in this plane:
The fuel system in this plane is very easy to manage. There are only two tanks to pick from on the fuel selector, L or R. There are dual gauges, one for the L tank and one for the R tank. They always show fuel level in the main tanks, unless you press the momentary button to read the tip fuel levels. (There are also visual sights to the tip levels visible from the cockpit on the tanks themselves.) As you use fuel, you can transfer from the L or R tank independently with the transfer pumps. I think this is a superior fuel management system over the 4-way or 6-way position fuel selectors in later models with tip tanks. It always gives a clear idea of fuel status and you are always burning from a main tank.

Wow, what a beautiful nice and clean airplane.
Very well done. glwts

Beautiful airplane with all the right mods!

Absolutely beautiful plane! Classic look with a touch of modern. Exactly what I want, but don't have the money right now.

This will sell before I read to the bottom of the thread.

How has this not sold??

Interested with cash. PM sent

The reason has been entirely on me due to time constraints, I have been very busy with work and my business over the past few weeks. There has been incredible interest and having a hard time keeping up - apologies to everyone if I have been slow to respond.
