Default comanche 250

My dad has a '67 260 - totally awesome aircraft - very fast!

His is worth approx $100,000, but has nice paint and interior.

Off the cuff, I'd say $65,000 sounds good, but you could check the value on
the AOPA website, if you are a member.

Also, the International Comanche Society is a good source of Comanche
information.
