This is my 1964 American Skier. We completly rebuilt her from the stringers up, floor, carpet motor, guages, wiring, warmed over 302 w/4v holley on a performer intake.
Mallory uni lite dist. GT 40 heads, replaced original tranny with B/W velvet drive, 4 blade OJ 13x13. New interior on rear bench, removed front bench for more interior space. Custom swivel seats went there W/observer seat able to rotate 360’ Exhaust was opened up to 3 in. thru the transom, killer exhaust note...have ordered new motor but have no desire to stop using boat for the transplant, 331 stroker will set in the shop to cool weater comes, or i get a bee in my butt.
400 watt stereo w/ sirrius radio, 4 speaker and amp hidden on bulkhead forward of lift eye puts it out of site, but lotsa punch from the four 6x9 sony’s. The only thing I like more than driving her is pulling our 24’ WaterHopper parasail, and you yhink pulling up 2 slaloms is tuff on your CC. Have also installed a removable ski bar, she came without a pylon from the factory. She looks bone stock on the out side other than the Auto Meter guages, orig. Airguide still works fine, the best of the old with a healthy dose of new. This is an ongoing project that started 3 yrs. ago and will continue till ????????? is she for sale ? Karen and I are asked that anytime we fuel up or when cruising on the lakes, my answer is ask HER, you already know the answer.........how could anyone sell one of these classics, not ours. And by the way her name is Knot Correct, fitting name I think.
