Ernie Martin is an unknown quantity at this point
My A&P knows Skymasters inside out, used to own a 1965 337 S/N 0032, and has worked in my old 337D and my current 337G. He says there are no flaws or problems in early models. They are essentially the same design. It's true that over the years Cessna made some changes, but these were more along the lines of modest improvements and not major changes to correct deficiencies.


Of course, a 1965 model is likely to have more wear and tear than a 1976 model, and you may want to scrutinize it carefully, but from a design viewpoint there seems to be no problems.
