Tim I never see your test Twin but you make hide his collection “ Crapshooters “ lol

 

[Terry Keeley]

Any idea if Don is still around?

I remember him helping a seventeen year old kid at the '78 Indy Unlimited.

 

[timothy johnson]

No idea Terry, one of his last contacts may have been Andy Brown who said he was in Atlanta.

The last owner of this twin got his IMPBA 80 MPH patch with 6.5 OPS motor's. Even the older Crapshooters were really fast.

Cool cool boat. I remember when Don built it. I remember all of his boat builds in the magazines. This boat is kinda’ like a dirt bike that has a kick stand. No one will buy it to race it, but it would be a great Sunday fun boat. With parts getting scarce on OPS I believe the whole package would sell for around $450 shipped.

 

[Marty Davis]

This may be a kit that I built for Don?

 

[johnsteltzer]

Hey Tim you still have the twin

 

[timothy johnson]

Yes John I do.

 

[johnsteltzer]

What’s the lowest you will take for it

 

[timothy johnson]

I would sell it for $650 shipped. Thanks for the inquiry John.

 

[johnsteltzer]

Would you take 500 and a couple of fuel tanks for it

 

[timothy johnson]

No thanks John

 

[Steve Ballinger]

Would you ship to Australia? I pay shipping.

 

[timothy johnson]

Yes

 

[johnsteltzer]
