Looks more like a 24 Excalibur, or maybe a 24 Panther (not Pantera)

Looking...
thanks for such a quick reply. I emailed the seller of this boat and he insists it is a 1973 Magnum prototype and he states he has the documentation to back it up. I also requested the hull ID and it's kinda funny but I did not get it. Hull has a new transom with a bravo drive.

I thought it kinda looks like a Excalibur or Scorpion. I will go to see this in person and see if I can get a hull ID number. Once again thanks for all the input!!!

I heard the same story when I bought my 1974 24' Cheetah, she looks just like the one you looked at. Magnum & Cigarette decals are cheap & easy to stick on any brand of boat..

Where were the Cheetah's built? I am trying to figure out what this is for a friend and have no clues. It has no HIN.
