Is that the Rambler/ AMC 327? That’s nice jewelry in a period correct boat.

Welcome. Yes sure would be great if you could pursue every option to keep that 58 engine. Would make boat more desirable to collect and show off.
Consider it a challenging hobby to find parts and restore |

Jeremy,
I suggest keeping the 327 Gray. Does it run? If not, tell us more. It is worth keeping. Problems with a mechanic? Think about joining. Love to see what you picked up. Post some pictures.

I just bought a 1958 Correct Craft Collegian 18’ woody. Apparently, it has the original gray marine engine. Is this worth keeping? Should I just replace the engine with a newer one.
I can’t seem to find a mechanic that will even touch this engine. Any thoughts? |
