Default Speaking of Shadows

Since there is a great thread on here about a 1981 Shadow getting resored...got me wondering. It is my understanding that Love it again became Hustler which became Crimson tide which later became Out of Bounds lastly in CA...Where might this Shadow be now?
And also where is the Shadow 30 that was Ambusher then Eastern Express then maybe Cat Nip? Michigan somewhere? Interested, thanks.

American Dream is alive and well as D-11 and was last seen at TnT with # 5's and blower motors......

Love It Again was sitting out back of marine Machine about 10 years ago when I saw it last, rotting, with some funky canopies on the deck, might have said Phantom on the side?

The Shadow cat that became Ambusher was gray in color & originally came from Lake Mead I believe. It then became Eastern Express. We sold it to Greg Dunbar from the Grand Haven Mi area, he named it CAT NIP. Last time I talked to Greg about 3 years ago he still had it.

I wonder which boat became Crimson Tide and Out of Bounds in CA. I thought I read that T2x (in a previous post) said the second Love it went to CA...thought Crimson Tide might be it.
Hmmmmm.

Any more pics of this one? Very cool! I saw it in a Sarasota race 1989 I think. Did you have 500/550 hp smallblocks? Does boat still have smallblocks? Thanks.

Yup PHANTOM was it , I had seen it about that same time

We ran 372cu small blocks with 9.5 compression set up for OPT, P class, they made around 550hp. I believe Cat Nip still has small block Chevy's.
