Brian that looks like an older Sprint, what year is it ?
That would make a great boat for someone to come out and race with.

Hey Jim! SHHHHH Don't let the word out, I've already got my eye on it!

It's a '73 Eliminator ... fresh paint from Anaheim Hills Auto Body & pump set back with low profile intake from Tom Papp ...

The trailer is back to road trailer width, tounge has been returned to normal (swing away),but the chrome fenders need to be mounted. I rewired the trailer as well as sand blast and paint. It's a nice trailer ... oh yeah, new bunks and carpet.

New tripple dip chrome on the cav plates.

rail kit for BBC and foot pedals are there, not sure if the single seat is still around, I think it has a couple of buckets and a bench ...

My Brother-in-law took it on as a project from me & doesn't think he'll ever do anything with it ... so here we are.

It was a fast boat when I had it ... ran over 120 mph ... it wasn't comfortable, but it did it

Let me know if you're interested ... I need to call him and make sure he hasn't changed his mind again saying he wants to keep it.

nice hull

Can you find out what his price is now-a-days?

« **Reply #8 on:** February 23, 2008, 07:38:33 AM »

Just spoke to him yesterday ... he'll take $1800 just like the asking price

I need to get new pictures ... since hot boat went down, now all we see is red x's ...

« **Reply #9 on:** March 01, 2008, 03:55:59 PM »

Okay, since circle boat racing has officially started up again, I figure someone might have the bug!

$1800 and I was wrong, BBC Rail kit isn't in it anymore.

Shoot, the paint alone cost me over $2500, new intake machined for a shoe & ride plate, set back already.

Trailer redone w/ new wiring and bunks ... this is a smoking deal ... you have to mount the chrome fenders though.

I'll give him $1200 for it.

« **Reply #23 on:** March 30, 2008, 08:36:41 PM »

Im not sure if it would realy be that good of a circle boat

(verry shallow V and no dropped chines (sp)) , but it should be fast on smooth water

. Thats right, no more 54mph boats for me !!!
