My criteria follow:
- 1973-1977 Cessna 150
- Low TT is good, I have seen it as low as 1200 but I am thinking between 1200 and 3500
- SMOH needs to be low
- IFR to pursue my IFR rating
- Radio with RNAV/DME would cool
- I would like a pretty nice interior and exterior
- Damage history tends to make me shy away. I am sure most repairs are fine but, I?d prefer to just stay away from damage history
- Lost logs are scary; I want all logs from birth
Do these criteria sound reasonable?

Just another person's opinion, but going back to the '67 G model expands your available options that much more. That year is the one in which they increased the cabin width by bowing the doors slightly.
The only other comment I might argue is the damage history. If it is fully disclosed and the repair is A) Done Right; and B) Some (or many) years ago, then don't exclude planes w/ DH. As many will tell you, a properly done repair that happened 20 years ago assures that the repair "took" and shouldn't really be a factor.
Best wishes in your hunt.
