1973 Piper PA-28 CherokeeSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1973 Piper PA-28-140 Cherokee (N55715) presents as a well-maintained example with 3,075 total airframe hours and a Lycoming O-320-E3D engine showing 1,035 hours SMOH since its May 1977 overhaul. The aircraft features a Sensenich propeller with 405 hours SPOH and demonstrates solid engine health with compression readings between 70/80 and 78/80 across all cylinders. The avionics suite includes dual Bendix King nav/comms, a KLN 89B GPS, PS Engineering audio panel, and modern upgrades like a Garmin GPS 396 panel mount with Uavionix ADS-B Out capability, making it IFR-capable though not currently certified.

The airframe shows well with its white, light blue, and gold exterior paint in good condition, complemented by a tan fabric interior described as being in good shape. Recent maintenance includes a fresh annual completed in August 2024, new main tires, and a new battery, with no damage history reported. With a useful load of 900 lbs and 50-gallon fuel capacity giving it a 670 nm range at cruise, this Cherokee would serve well as a trainer or personal aircraft. The aircraft is being offered at auction with bidding opening April 9, 2025.
