N8059X - 59X on the day I purchased it in 1980. It had been sitting for several years at the now gone Santa Rosa Air Center in Calif. 59X was anxious to fly and we did-a lot! - by S B J

N8059X @ TCY - What a fine plane 59X was (crashed in 9-23-12) that gave me over 500 very enjoyable hours. How fortunate pilots in the 50s and 60s were when the C172 came along. - by S B J
