That's why I did the 1968 Nova 24 race boat. |

Who ever buys it will spend more money than my father did back in 1988. Here's a question to ask yourself "Why didn't my father keep the boat?" He kept all 4 motors, the drives, the trailer etc but not the boat. The boat sold for $40,000 when it sank. |

This is my estimate when I look at this boat, and in this economy I am sure there are deals to be found.
25.000 hull 20.000 paint Hull all white 10.000 transom work or other rot or water problem areas 75.000 598 na bbc 700 hp X 3 eng 30.000 for drives theres a lot of ssm out there or even konrads 10.000 transmissions 15.000 exhaust 20.000 parts 20.000 rigging 225.000 total I know they eng are not sterlings and the paint is not a TOAD, and I am sure you could spend a million on it some people have, I was just looking at a minimum aceptable standard and this is what I came up with, to turn it back to it's firebreathing days of glory I can't even imagine. |
That video is unreal. How the hell do drives survive that kind of abuse? :eek:

Why do people take old muscle cars from there graves in fields & barns, turn them from complete total rust buckets to pristine better than new condition?
I have always been impressed by the asking price of old Apaches, but what do they really sell for? What would this boat with modern rigging really be worth when it is done? Not asking price, selling price! Can it be converted to run big twins staggered? |
