The red 35 was the original Conspiracy, no?
Speaking of Cigarettes, attached are the last picts I've ever seen of Ajac Hawk / Super Brut (17) ~ '85. Old school Everglades poker run. Anyone have any idea where she's at? Last rumor control had it hacked-up & languishing in the Bahamas?
No disrespect to Mr. Jacoby, but that blonde bikini holder in the driver's hole isn't an all-bad replacement!

No, Ajac Hawk and Panama Hawk where two different Boats. When I worked at Trick Paint in Miami we Painted the Ajac Hawk Boat Black and Put the name "Terminator" on the sides. as for the Panama Hawk boat I remember Ron Dollar kept it in his shop, Maintaining it for the Panamanians that owned it. I went and tested it with Him (& Them) and they where bichin cause Richie Powers had it going over 90mph Then Hawk rebuilt the motors and it only ran 85. They raced it one more time then must have taken it to panama.

Trick Paint was in the same building as "Target Trailers", The owner of Trick Paint was the Brother of the owner of target trailers (the Rossi Family). Now for Benny...Benny was my hero, He got to paint allot of KickAzz boats Like Fayva, CatMan and some others I forgot. He wasn't cheap, but he was friggin good. I Painted for Cougar so I Got to paint Most of them, I also worked for trick and I got to paint most Midnight Express's and at trick also got allot of Race Boats from all manufacturers. We also painted the Dollar Marine special (with the unraveling ribbon on the side) and Both Miami Vice Scarabs. The good ol days.
