1964 Fresno “ Muscle Boat” - We have a collection of muscle cars from the 60’s so we came across this 60’s era hot rod speedboat and thought it would be something nostalgic to have in our collection. We have not researched the origins of this one, but we think it is really cool. Any of you “motor heads” out there who remember these boats back then, please let us know.

We would love to know the history behind this one.

It has a “Big Block” 427 C.I. Chevrolet V-8 with 454 Hi-Performance Heads with a High Rise aluminum tunnel ram intake manifold that accommodates a pair of 4-Brl. carburetors. Open polished chrome headers help pass all that burned gas. A V-Drive transmission transfers all the power through the shaft drive. It has a center console style shifter & a pedal drive throttle to make it blast off.

It features an electronic ignition, dual batteries & dual oil filters just to name of few of the hi-performance goodies. Personally I have not had the guts to demo this one myself, but J.B. does and had a blast last summer on lake Hickory. He reports that it’s not for the faint of heart. He best describes it as a T-Bucket that floats. It has custom made aluminum trim tabs mounted on the rear transom for control. The hull is finished in White Pearl metallic with a custom vinyl interior to accommodate 5 brave or just plain crazy mad people. A custom built 2-axle trailer is included. We sunk a ton of money on this one & we really do not know what it is worth. We are open to interesting collector car trades or make us an offer we can’t refuse. Summer is here so now is the time to enjoy this one. If you feel the need for speed, or just want to put this one along side your 60’s muscle car collection like we did, give us a call toll free today @ 866-297-2331 and lets put a deal together.
