Is that picture in the ad one of your boats?

What do you think, 28 years of sitting total rebuild.  With a Ferrari sitting in the corner you wonder what the reserve is, they probable looked at this as an investment..

Who Knows ?
I was contacted by the fellow that inherited that boat a year or two so back, sent me pic's,
notice the valve covers, that style didn't come out until the late 80's, and it looks like a marine application, center rise, shift plate with assist, be interesting to see where it goe's, seems like the scimitars are on a roll right now, happens every 4 / 5 years, just after I have sold two of them  :(
story of my life.
