1965 Piper PA28-140 with tons of upgrades

I recently just completed a 6 month Annual from tip to tail, no expenses spared. Overhauled three struts, brake system, polished everything I could and added upgrades as listed on sheet uploaded. Pretty impressed with performance and smooth flights. I own a Maintenance shop and balanced my prop to .013 which is about as low as you can get it. Also has LED position and Landing light. The 796 is hard wired to panel, keeps my wife busy playing with it.

  • Sweet 140/160! I have 1968 model, and am considering several of the upgrades you’ve done, so have just done screenshots of your work. Good job, and thanks!

  • nice work, what did you do for the glareshield panel overhang. mine is a 1964 pa-28-140 and the instrument panel plastic covers have the hard plastic overhang molded into one piece.

  • Beautiful bird.

  • Simply "Wow" nice work.

  • Looks amazing!

  • Beautiful airplane! I think the key is “I own a Maintenance shop….” 😬

  • Mike, you and I don't own a maintenance shop, but we've paid for one!
