Satan's Toy. This was the only time a boat, all by itself, ever made the front of Hot Rod Magazine. Note which end of this classy Howard they chose to shoot! Show off that engine! Wood deck and Holman/Moody built big block Ford separate this boat from "also-rans".Weren't people and their boats just better looking back when this was shot?

These were great hulls, one of the first to use "vacuum bagging" to laminate their hulls. Gus Davis Ford was in the thick of things here.

Hey Spikey... TY for the FE pics... You know I loves me sum FE ford iron...
Billy B knows the poop on the shovel nose with the Cammer... I have CRS so I can't accurately tell the story but I think that the boat didn't meet the reserve when it was up on EBAY several years ago, I think that it may have also been on Barret Jacksons... sorry for my bad memory, I hope to see you soon at the beach...
