I purchased N4851K in Feb 99 from an old pilot in Mineola, Texas. I kept the plane at Mesquite and flew it regularly to Colorado Springs and Mississippi. It was a great bird and I really hated to sell her. The biggest problem was finding an AP that understood the complexities of a fifty-year old airplane. The hydraulics were a continual issue with her. That said, there was nothing like flying her into a new airport and watching heads turn as we taxied up to the parking area!!! I'm glad she found a good home.
Here is a link to some of the photos I still have of her:
