Sometimes when shopping for an airplane you find a time capsule—a working example of how general aviation looked decades ago. This 1975 Cessna T310R, with its distinctive long nose and prominent tip tanks, is an emblem of the GA boom that had been building since the earliest 310s hit the market in the mid-1950s. With a wonderful period paint scheme, wherever you go in this aircraft, you will be traveling in style.
This 1975 T310R has 3,709 hours on the airframe and 890 hours since overhaul on each of its Continental TSIO-520 engines, which received RAM I upgrades. The panel consists mainly of Bendix/King avionics, including a KMA 240 audio panel, dual nav/coms, KN 64 DME, KT 76A transponder, and a KLN 90 GPS. Other equipment includes a Bennett Avionics ADF and an STEC 55 autopilot. This aircraft’s interior was refurbished in 1996. The paint is original.

Whether you seek fast, heavy-lifting family transport or a sleek multiengine time builder, this aircraft with RAM engine upgrades can get the job done and is available for $129,000 on AircraftForSale.
