Default Classic muscle boat at Mecum Chicago

HI all, thought I would post, for those who may find it interesting, the link to my 1971 Streblow boat that is running at Mecum Chicago.
The boat feels and sounds like a muscle car, with a small block motivating her via an inboard and straight pipes.

Here is the link

Here is another, about a another small Streblow with a 502!!! (on the market for 120k I think)

Enjoy, and if you are at Mecum, stop by and say hello.

John

I love those old wood boats. We hade the chance to restore a 1950 Chris Craft a couple of years ago. It was only a flat head straight 6 but classy none the less.

We have the 1951 Chris Craft 17 Foot utility my parents bought and restored in 1976, 6 cyl flat head Hercules Industrial engine, they will pull extremely hard since the prop is up under the boat.
