Curious what the follow may cost. Ballpark. Late 60s 172.

Attitude Indicator wonky. Tilting crazily when on ground after lengthy warm up time.

VORs not reading the same heading to the same VOR. Off by quite a bit. One is somewhat accurate.

Narco radio (12d model?) with tuner knob that kindof works on comm.

Flap indicator that takes over a minute to read 0deg once flaps are back up.

I understand the VORs are tough to estimate without knowing more about the problem. Ballpark... Thanks.

Assuming your vacuum pressure is good, order an exchange from Aircraft Quality Instruments for $425. Should take your mechanic less than a hour to swap them out.

$3000 most likely to get it all done cheapest way possible. The flap indicator cable needs to be cleaned and lubed, and make sure none of the pulleys is worn out/split. The rest you will likely end up replacing off eBay.
