The paint doesn't exactly make the lines of the boat stand out.

AYE!!!!
You get a free bowl of soup when you buy the paint job???

Looks like a decent boat, but the paint really takes away from the classic lines.

That's one of the original Bullet paint jobs. Circa 1988?

I'd be willing to bet that there are about 20,000 members here who would love to have that boat.....fugly or not! ;)

You're right - put me on the list.

But....
































I'd be on my way to sanding and paint shortly after.


Give me an old "hockey stick" paint job and it's all good. :D

I'm digging the paint. I think it would look great behind the Avalanche, but that's just me. :evilb:

Before you go, you should know that you'd be erasing the brochure boat and one of the all time best ad's ever. :(

The paint is ok to me. Looks better than that circus crap coming out of the factory now.

I have been looking for these graphics in a bullet. I'm very interested, if it's for sale. If anyone has any info, please reply. It's good to see that there are still some nice clean original bullets out there.

I saw that exact paint job on a Bullett at the NYC boat show in 1988. That day I saw that boat was the day I decided I wanted a Cig, and someday I would own one.

Yep. I looked at it briefly late last summer, he had it parked for sale on a busy roadside, I live in the same town. Its an all original boat that needs some TLC. Its been here local its whole life, so no salt water.

Some things I recall :

All black dash
no hydraulic steering
marks / nicks in the paint
fair interior

I agree about one of the best Cigarette ad's.

But the graphics don't work for me.

Notice even in the ad, you don't see the entire paint work - it looks better in the ad.

Still, as Craig said, I'm near the top of the list on the 20,000 members that would love to have her.
(but I'd still paint her... :D )

That guy launches from the same marina that I store my boat at. I have seen the boat up close. It needs some TLC. I can check it out if somebody is interested. The graphics don't look bad when it is in the water.

P.M. me if you need info.

Boy they are sure proud of it!!! I almost bought one with the same graphics on it, but ended up with another one. And of course it got painted too. They sure are great boats tho.
