i found a 1979 24 with a 454. first boat with the flip up cabin door walk down cuddy. was sitting in a garage for 15-20 years. i can buy that too. he is looking to go to a 28. it has similar paint to the one for sale. and its completely original. pretty neat boat.

Didn't you say u knew where the 28 twin with 500s on the hoist (in the pic) was for sale? Believe it wasn't rigged at pantera.

the boat on the hoist with the blower hatch is this boat. it has 500hp's in it. it was painted by the 3rd owner who owned a body shop in ohio. he is the guy who lost it to the bank. then it sat in florida and now randy has it for sale

That boat was down here in Florida last fall for sale in Orlando. Talked to the owner before I bought the Velocity. $35k or so would have bought it then.

waiting for the rams to show up. steering is a winter project.

525sc going in the race boat. it has a blower hatch so i figured id fill it. motor made 550 hp 630 ft lbs. should be a nice running reliable package. it will sound good with the stainless marine full dry exhaust!!

cant reveal my sources on the finds lol
