Default 29-9 Magnum

According to my records there were 5-29'9" built in 1973.The Boar Hog was a outboard version.I have the I/O version originally called Thumper Too 73-76 and then became the Head Hunter 76-77.I located the 29-9 in 2008 on the west coast and moved to Illinois for a complete rebuild to its original configuration.There was two Boar Hogs,a 28 and 29-9.
See photos attached. Bud
