How many Cigs were...
 

produced with the "thunder II' paint or 90 MPH paint scheme?

All Guns??

Any pics ?

Here's one!!

but wich is the 90 mph scheme ?

The one posted it's the thunder ?

This is the 90mph paint. Not sure what the thunder II is.

I heard there's a Cafe that lives on a lift at Grand Lake!:party-smiley-004:

I don't understand why it's called 90 MPH...

Here is an older thread link, it was a factory package of staggered motors, #5 drives and special paint scheme. Guaranteed to do 90mph upon delivery. Very respectable speeds for back then.

From what I understood is that they were limited production and guaranteed to run 90mph or better.

Still pretty respectable today!

Agreed, but with that kind of power in today's boats, you would see speeds close to 20 mph faster!

BTW, that was always my favorite Cigarette. I love the old school two tone paint and staggered set up in a straight bottom gun.

Has anyone ever done that paint on a new 38 or 39?

Not that I've seen.

I've just done it on my 90' straight bottom..not staggered

I haven't seen it on a step

Sweet looking boat!

We have a copy of the orginal Cigarette sales agreement on our Cafe. It shows 'Thunder II' on paint so I assumed that was cigs label for the 90 MPH scheme.

Thanks...should be done in another month (motors/drives) I'll post more pics when i get them

FatBoy is technically not the 90MPH graffic .... C'mon dude !!?!??! :evilb:

that looks very nice, I've seen a couple other where the colors are inverted (light hull and dark stripes) and didn't like them but that looks really sharp.

Also like that you got the correct font on the side of the fairing.

Very nice indeed. Post more when it's done.

Doug (owner of Pure Adenaline) was nice enought to take pics and measurements for me to make sure everything was identical including font to his.

The only thing i've added was the on the deck(cowell) under Cigarette I put Racing Team...i liked how that looked on Red Cloud.

The Konrads are at my engine builders and the blown 598ci should be done in two weeks

What are you talking about??? I know that!!!:D

"Doug" has the one I want. Best all around Cigarette model ever in my opinion.

Well, I thought we had the only Cafe with the 90 mph paint - Until I found this one today.:party-smiley-004:

Here is ours.

good stuff....

I'm thinking about doing that sheme on my 95 Top Gun, only blue w/white (rather than red). So I don't have to repaint the transom again. Seems like a fairly easy paint job.

Not sure how it would look. Any thougts?

Blue and white would look bad azz....Classy paint scheme!

I was looking alll over for this thread. I could'nt remember where it was.

Thanks for the info Tank. This might be next winters project.

They did a Rough Rider like that back in the 90's. It's over in the UAE I believe. Looks really good. Dark blue hull with a white stripe. There's a small picture of it in Phil's little clothing shop on the wall across from the bathroom if anyone can remember to take a pic of the pic. :D

I knew I'd seen one that was blue before. I like the way it looked. Very clean.

Who has the older TG with that paint with the white #6s that I have seen in KW? That is very nice looking boat.

Yea, it has to be one of if not THEE cleanest of the bunch.

That boat is sick!

Thats a nice rig!

That would be cool to see. :)
