Some guy in Ms. owed my BIL some money for some construction he did and offered to GIVE him a '58 C-172. He didn't want it or need the money I guess because he said it's mine if I want to come get it. It was ran every few months but had not been in the air in over 15 years and had the old crystal type radios in it. I did a lot of research and even getting it for free was not worth it. Figured on well over $15K just to get it legal and airworthy so I passed on the deal. .
