Magnum Power
In the re-do of the Thriller we found a name under the most recent paint..."Magnum Power" the 1974 maltese was orange in color,no cabin liner,4 gas tanks.The two additional ones were just in front of the cabin bulkhead.This was a Racing Magnum set up when purchased based on stringer placement.Prior to coming east 2-3 years ago it was out of Lake Havasu,however it was no stranger to salt water. When we took apart the 3 man bolster the aluminum frame was well pitted. Any history on this Maltese.? Bud Weisner

so you decided to do a full restore on it? Or did you find a buyer that is having it restored?

Magnum Power
Aaron...post what you have,looking for any old info so I can have as much history on Magnum Power / Thriller
Jeff,most of the potential buyers want to spend nothing and they usually end up with nothing,I have had more potential buyers who want a Magnum ready to go,so I decided to put it thru a retro.Removed the 3 man bolster,complete re-paint,white with standard red badging.All original Magnum hardware being re-chromed,or buffed along with original candy stripped interior with racing bolsters.It will be a beauty when it is done. I am building a new web site "Magnum Restoration" that will show the progress on current and past boats ,plus some Magnum parts that I need to get rid of.
I will let you all know when the site is up and running. Bud

Could be the Maltese
Aaron was this an ad,or sales piece?The maltese had a life line and a light pole up front.It was sold by Burbank Marine 1/22/75 and only 7 Maltese's came from he factory in the Tangerine color,it also had 6 small air scoops which is uncommon,they normally came with 4 . Bud
