Id like to go see it but 50k is steeper than I can put towards the boat, dont want to wast anyones time, Id consider it without power for a much lesser priced option

If you find one that works for you or if anyone is interested we have the molds for an updated Chris Cat dash (not the flat one). It has much better lines. Please contact me for pictures if you'd like.

When we sold the Shadow cat back in 1992 it had single Holley carb 500+ twin small blocks & ran 105mph. The last time I talked to Greg in Key West a few years ago he said it was powered now with blower engines. Don't know what it now has for power today but 50K could be due to it's power? This OB Shadow cat [ CAT ATTACK ] been for sale for some time for 19K, like any older race cat it can be a hard sell.
