Not a combination you see everyday. Picture was taken today in the very little and rural town of Tampa, KS.

Always like the old COE's, that looks like it's survived without too much rot.

That’s a pretty scary waterline.

The boat looks like a Lonestar. There are guys that are into those old finned boats that would love to have that hardtop.
Here's mine. Project in progress...

Those snub nose trucks have a strong following, especially if they're not destroyed.  I sold our old 1964 C60 with dump body about 18 months ago and missed the $$ boat.  Had no idea until after the phone started ringing and a buyer (first caller) was on the way.   Think I had approx 15-20 contacts within 24 hrs.  I knew the actual COE flat nose trucks were prized.   So are snub nose cabs.

Jack up one edge.  Reverse.  Unfortunately once in the car couldn't handle the weight.   :grin: :grin: :grin:

I can't find a picture right now,  I will look later in my older laptop.  I have a 1958 HyroSwift which is patterned after a 1957 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser powered by  twin Mercury MK 55's, 40 hp outboards. It is salmon ,pink, in color  with a white hard top. Just finished freshing up the motors and ready to start on the boat.

A Guzzi (Eldorado?) on Crete, Greece, in 2010. On the highway from Chania heading east.
I believe it had local plates. It was the only Guzzi I saw on the island.
