The Hondo was a 72 mfg.  This was taken early 74.  A new V-Drive cost you about same as a Lincoln MarkVI then.  You could buy a hull in Stage I, II, or III completion.  Stage III all you needed was motor and mounts and a drive line.

As always find someone in a little bind and buy a complete running boat cheaper.

That's always the case, I kind of figured there would be more out there with todays economy. But I guess what they are asking, is different then what they will take. think.gif I really don't need to be looking, but more is always better! crazy.gif
