Default Restore

It will faithfully be restored back to it's original racing days. The only new item that we know will be added is steering. Bud

Default Power on 29-9

The original power was a 482 and we will most likely keep the engine after Roger Munn who may have run this boat with Billy Martin at one time for Don Aronow tears it down and sees what we have to work with.The previous owner said that it produced 750 hp at one time and I have been told that is possible,however I am no engine expert..still learning.
It has all original Kiekhaefer equipment including the specially built exhaust. We will see once it arrives in early Sept. I will keep you all up to date on its progress...Bud

Default pictures of the 29-9

The 29-9 has the same lines as #51 pictured in the photo from Magnum and could be Hustler 5 in the photos.Then it had two big blocks. Bud
