The "story" I heard was the original owner, a doctor from Ohio sent it to Mcmanus to get restored and it ended up costing HUGE money, then he never used it and it sold for a 1/3 or the restoration cost.

yes, motors were new (still are) just test time, however they looked as if the were painted with krylon, we just re painted new valve covers polished alt and dist, new crossover tube, timing cover, oil pans, that kind of stuff. the interior is I belive original, one small tear in fair condition but could be nicer. the paint on the deck is great but the hull sides will be re done. I do need (if anyone can help) the original poweder keg decales to put back on. also the drives were removed and re painted back to original volvo color. Mcmanus did all the wiring and riging it was all great.
