Hello ERV JR, I have no idea where "Fascination" is but I thought posting a few pics. would maybe stir someones memory. I think this was the most beautiful boat ever built even today. (Dago Red is second on my list) Your dad has a great eye for detail and he sure was meticulous with his boats. I admire and respect him probably more than anyone when it comes to this, I hope all is well with him.

what make is that boat?

[funnycarmike]

Sorry for the multipul posts...... Hey if you are interested, a friend of my dad bought another one of your dads boats.."Snatcher" which was a Sanger bubble deck, I believe (another jaw dropper!!) He changed the name put a wing on it, went out a few times (scared the crap out of him!) and it has been parked with a cover on it in the garage ever since. My info. is pretty old so things may have changed but like I said, if interested I could track down a ph.# for you. I also have alot of pictures of all three boats i could e-mail to you if you would like. If so, send me a shout at michaelirwinracing.com or shoot me a pm here.......SEE YAAAA!!

It is a COLE TR-2. Like a '78 or'79 I think.

I Belive That The Black Boat Was An 81 Think It Was Built The Year Before I Was Born.

Yeah, I am supposed to be there. Have a set of headers to build, the engine to finish, a battery to mount, a new ignition system to install, have to re-wire the car, waiting on the new transmission in the mail, the converter in the mail, put the engine and trans in the car, plumb the transmission for air shift and transbrake, change the steering wheel for air shifters, change the throttle pedal and location, make a mount to get the starter on the engine, plump the oiling system, and vacuum system, make a box for the computer, wire and install the computer, figure out a way to get it to run, and I will be there.
Sounds easy now that I type it out.
See you there.

All kidding aside, I have been stressed about getting my truck tuned up before tomorrow afternoon......Now that I see your list, I'm doing o.k. :) We'll see you out there.
