Logbooks from late 1990's, early 2000's or since overhaul. STC paperwork and 337's somewhat recreaete-able from time prior. The logbooks and paperwork I do have is very detailed and well organized since the engine has been overhauled. Most annuals were completed using the Beechcraft long form annual worksheet. 

All logbooks/receipts/8130's/STC's/ 337's / etc all logged very neatly and chronologically. No handfuls of used napkins with logbook entry's. 

Also new airworthiness issued in 2021 after previous owner lost the certificate so everything up till that point was looked over with a fine tooth comb by the FAA - this was a huge selling point for me when I purchased the plane

Most accessories overhauled within last 300 hours

Recent maintenance:
New flight custom tires
New fuel sender in  aux tank
Rebuilt fuel senders in tip tanks
New fuel pump for tip tank transfer 
Reconditioned aux tank
Rebuilt shimmy damper 
New fuel pressure gauge

Left bladder tank is 3-4 years old and kept topped off with no leaks

Right bladder tank age is unknown, tank will seep if topped off to 17 gallons, I usually keep it at 13-14 and no staining is noted. However I do have a brand new fuel bladder from eagle fuel cells that has not been installed yet and will be included if not already installed by that time. 

This plane was meant to be our forever plane but recently offered a new job and cannot justify the plane financially over the next year with the first year pay cut

There's probably more im forgetting to add or mention, just ask and I'll do my best to answer any questions.
