1976 Piper Archer IISingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1976 Piper Archer II (N4581X) presents as a meticulously restored aircraft with only 1,770 total airframe hours and a fresh engine showing 435 hours since major overhaul. The aircraft underwent a comprehensive restoration exceeding $100,000 in investments, including a complete inspection and overhaul from spinner to trim tab. The panel features modern Garmin avionics with a GNS 530W GPS/NAV/COM, GNC 255A NAV/COM, GTX 330 ES transponder with ADS-B Out, and GMA 340 audio panel. The 180 HP Lycoming O-360-A4M engine turns a 2-blade Sensenich propeller, supported by recent mags, fuel pump, and vacuum pump replacements.

The Archer II sports a 1992 Reese Aircraft paint job in red/white with gold trim (rated 7/10) and a brand-new 2025 Airtex deep red vinyl interior (rated 10/10) with excellent condition glass. Notably, the aircraft has no damage history, all ADs are complete, and features include Knots 2U gap seals, RMD wing-tip and landing lights, and the desirable tapered wing configuration. While the original logbooks were stolen, they've been meticulously recreated, with the next annual due September 2025 and IFR certification due September 2026. With its 1,016 lb useful load and 4-seat capacity, this well-equipped Archer II offers solid cross-country capability at an attractive operating cost.
