Wow... that beast is screaming "give me a blower!"   Have you thought of installing seat belts and a windscreen? Those might be useful in a boat like this.

Love the scoop and the exhaust pipes. :D Very cool! Can't say I approve of the tow vehicle though. :(

Is that a Halibrand V-drive?   Man those things were noisy!  Pretty boat, reminds me of past days on the CO river   :D

Wow thanks guys !
So many replies already . I appreciate the kind words.
I tried to upload several more pictures but I was getting a file to big notice.
The boat is a 1969 Sanger flatbottom wooddeck. Casale v-drive with a FE 427 ov course :)
POP full roller valve train, Scat forged crank, Tunnel Wedge intake, Crower Rods, CP pistons, with a Joe Hunt Mag.
I did a complete restoration that took 3.5 years ( 2 years longer than expected) lol
I will try to post some more build pics if anybody really cares.
And the tow vehicle is a Red 1969 Ford Bronco presently going thru a resto. Not the wife's Yukon lol
All the best & thanks again
Brian
