Dan Olson wing goes with boat
This boat is a complete restoration from the ground up, everything is brand new, chromed, anodized, or polished, the project took several years to complete, no corners were cut anywhere, unspoken sums of money was invested in this project, the engine has about 2 hrs of run time on it, & puts out approx. 1000 HP , I really need to sell this boat & I would like to see it go to a good home, this boat is really a show piece & a part of drag boat history, & the best of everything was used in this rebuild,
A very very nice boat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
