Should I get an old 337?

[Roger]

I think a decent 337 will probably cost at least $60g's, and close to $100g's for a good one. You can of course pay that a couple of ways.
1) $30,000- buy in, then spend $50,000-70,000+/- over the 6-12 months that the plane is being brought up to speed
2) Pay for a good plane in the beginning,and start using it the day you buy it.
