Interesting Craigs List finds

That hull looks exactly like my Debonnaire. That guy seems a little optimistic at $3,600 for a bare hull without a power train.

A Super Air swim platform for sale. It won't, as he says, "Fit many models and years", but perhaps somebody here can use it. It won't fit my 1993 Ski, so I'm just passing along the word

Marty,
This did come up a couple years ago. I contacted the seller and reading between the lines found out the hull is the typical CC basket case. All the seams are opening up due to CC use of the bedding compound (we call it dumb-dumb) that dries out over the years.

It's still a viable project but, it would need to be taken down to the frames.

This boat just arrived at my shop very nice 2001 year model. If anyone wants the low down I will be more than happy to help! we are servicing and detailing the boat. trailer is a little rough but over all it is a very nice clean boat. The man said he would take 15K for it!

I think you meant to do this... '67 Wildcat for $2500 in OH

Light blue hull and deck- sweet looking boat, at a nice price! Someone must be able to tell just by looking- is that a 440?

Ah, so there was a non-hemi 426 too... Mopar big blocks.

If I were in the market for a larger vintage CC, Id be all over that boat!

I wonder why he bought it last fall and is already selling for $2,500.

Is that flat top motorbox a replacement? Nice looking boat, and in my color!

Did that year have foam in the stringers?.....i'm sure it did.
chances are the stringers will need replaced.

I would love to have that one for another project.

couldnt stand it i dropped him an email, i wish i could sell my boat right off for that one

Peter, your boat would make a great turnkey buy for someone, all restored, tons of power. A buyer will turn up.

That Wildcat seems like a great buy, I have a feeling a CCF member will own it soon.

I'm a bit of a fan of the wildcat too - one day I hope to have one.

Thought the wind shields were rounded though.??? Was it just the early ones.?

The 2000 sport was real. That posting is almost 2 1/2 yrs old. I bought it. It was an end of the season trade in on a leftover Malibu. Not a salavage boat The dealer just wanted to get his money out of the trade before winter. He even fixed a couple of things that I request.

Tim thanks for the links to the past threads, really cool info on those boats from Pauly. It's interesting - a boat that is one of 3 made should carry some added value for someone, but really it would be hard to justify much of a premium. Seems like a dealer or CC might want to preserve one.

Those bunks are scary. I'd think if the trailer rocked a bit too much over some bumps they would just collapse to one side or the other.
