This 1968 Piper Arrow (N4669J) presents as a well-maintained, turnkey aircraft with comprehensive upgrades and a clean Midwest history. The airframe shows 6,253 total hours with a 2015 engine overhaul by Custom Airmotive (1,097 SMOH) and a three-bladed propeller at 1,100 SOH. The aircraft features significant speed modifications including gap seals and root fairings, reportedly outperforming standard taper-wing models by 4-6 knots. The 2008 Airtex interior and paint (rated 9/10) remain in excellent condition, complemented by replaced side windows with wing view tint, Rosen visors, and carbon fiber panels.

The avionics suite is notably modern with a Garmin 430W (overhauled 2023), dual G5 instruments, GFC 500 autopilot with envelope protection, and a fully integrated JPI 830 engine monitoring system. ADS-B Out capability comes via a Garmin 345 transponder, while Sirius XM and Bluetooth audio enhance cockpit connectivity. The 200-horsepower Lycoming engine benefits from GAMI injectors, Rieff heaters, and a 2019 exhaust system overhaul. With a useful load of 906 lbs and all ADs complied (including a 2020 spar eddy current inspection), this IFR-capable Arrow is positioned as a reliable cross-country performer based at KBIE. The seller emphasizes its ready-to-fly condition with recent pitot-static certification (2024) and meticulous maintenance documentation.
