cool ebay listing for an 84 remake of a pachanga SRX, totally not worth the asking price, but pretty cool none the less. sort of funny only 2 years after this thing was supposedly made the new Pachanga line was launched. check out those guages!

It seems to be a remake of sorts....everything I've seen from the late 60's and earily 70's had been 18' with a jet drive but it does resemble the earily boat....ad states 19.5' and it does have a merc. Anyway it is unique and very nice but, I don't think that he'll get any takers at that price in the winter. There hasn't been a Pachanga on e-bay for the last 4 to 6 weeks that has sold (reserve not met). Wrong time of the year to be selling.........

I had a brand new 1969 19.5 pachanga this is the same as mine, center consol and all, mine was yellow.With a merc 327 chevy and a big old merc outdrive.I think the drive was what they called a type two.It had a vacum shift on it,they were hard as hell to shift.I got sum pic's got to find them I put a buick in it 430" was uncontrollable. Was swingin a 18by32prop. The drive was 1/78/to1.And they had no power steering.This Guy is blowin smoke. OLD DUDE JOHN PS in fact the boat I had is still around. I live in Edgemere Maryland around the francis scott key bridge.

Formula Guy here, cruise this forum at times, Buddy has a nice 32.
Anyway, that little 'Changa is downright cool. I think it's worth all of 20k. If I were looking for a unique 20 foot hot rod, that one would be on my short list. If the pics are true to the actual condition, it's a real cherry.
Just my .02 in your forum guys.
