Joe, Shhhhhhhhhhhh I've already been brainstorming over that one in my head a little bit. If I'm headed to Norman this weekend I may ask him about it once I get a few beers in him.

I've been hanging round you guys too long and there's something about the Holman Moody sound that's just intoxicating.

Boat needs a steering cable, new or rebuilt carb, and other misc stuff that will no doubt come up. We gave it a tune up and fired it up and it runs good.

Tim, From what I've seen, NC and WI seem to have the most/best old Correct Crafts. Most of the old boats up here that we find are parts boats.

Can't find squat like that down here in GA. All y'all and your old CC's are making me want another one. After driving Reids hot little blue skier in CT a while back I got a little fever I can't seem to get rid of.

We thought our Skylark was red when it was oxidized. We saw the original lacquer paint cracks and saw orange below that.

That Cuda is quite the score! Bet it will scat with that 250 horse in it. Probably known around it's lake back in the day.

The Crush is a 2009 and no, the early 70's orange is very different from Tangerine.

That thing is pretty cool, its gonna look great next to the seafoam green mustang. Too bad it's going to clash terribly with the other barracuda. You better send the mahogany one down to me for storage...

Color difference is mostly due to the lighting.

It came up on Craigs List over in VT. It was a guy's father's boat who had passed away a couple years ago. The guy sat on it for a few years, but didn't have time to fix it up, so decided to let it go.

That is quite the score. What is the story behind it?

Amazing how just the difference in where you take a picture how much the color changes....

Looks like regular orange in the outside pick and an almost red in the indoor pic.

Anyways, quite the awesome find!!! Is it the same color as that 72 skier that has the matching 2006 196 orange crush?

We found this unusual tangerine '68 Barracuda with a 352 Ford last week. It's unmolested and in pretty decent condition, although needs a good cleaning and buffing, and a little work to get it lake worthy.
