Avionics list:  

Century 41 AP (Flight computer ID757-1001004; Trim servo 1C373-6-807; Roll Servo 1C508-1-523R; Pitch Servo 1C812-2-8010

GPSS Controller/adapter 1C975; GPSS switch 1C977-1.  Attitude Gyro(Edo Aire)1U367-004-4; Directional Gyro1U262-014-4

Shadin Fuel Flow Indicator 912041T-D.  Garmin GI 106A Indicator.  EI Engine Analyzer System UBG-16

We purchased a Mooney 231 late last fall and have since upgraded the avionics.  We flew the airplane approximately 50 hours before the upgrade and found these avionics performed very well.  I'm not familiar with the used avionics market although the 430W we had sold immediately.  I'm curious as to the marketability of this list of avionics and the best source to advertise them.  Thanks.

Hi Kent,

For what its worth, there's a similar unit on eBay right now, they are asking $4000.  It has been listed for something like 6 months, I think.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/167210999597 

I was thinking of buying that for spares, and they accepted a slightly lower offer.  However, my issues turned out to be rather simple and I'm not sure if I would want to keep the C41 AP going yet... still need to try it in flight.  Anyhow, I hope that helps a bit with pricing the unit.

Appreciate the tip.  Actually my thoughts were to get about $3500.00 for everything.  I may keep the UBG-16 and Shadin fuel flow for installation in one of the local airplanes.  I was hoping to get $2000.00 for the Century 41 and $900.00 for the GI 106A Indicator.  I partnered with some folks on a Saratoga that had a Century 41, and although a capable AP, we had some issues.  It was refreshing to sit behind the Century 41 taken removed from this Mooney as it performed remarkably well, especially with the GPSS.  Anyway, I certainly understand your hesitation to keep theses older autopilots in service.

I might be interested in buying the AP for spares.  Would you mind messaging me with some pictures, and any additional info, such as overhaul dates?  It would not be immediate as I am still learning my plane, haven't even turned the autopilot on in flight yet.
