Description

Ready to move beyond fixed gear? This 1973 Piper Arrow II is a great way to do it. Low total time, low engine time, an Aspen EFD, and an upgraded interior give this Arrow plenty to like without trying too hard to impress you. It’s a capable, efficient retractable that’s equally happy building complex time or heading off on a cross-country adventure. In other words, it does a lot of things really well—and doesn’t need to shout about it.
