Bowling Ball land yacht

'has to be made by some division of "Brunswick" and you can
ONLY get it with a "MERCURY" (with a YAMAHA head because
the "engineers"??? at what is now formerly Kiekhafer cannot
begin to design a proper 4-cycle head!!!)

TO WIT: The bow looks like some excuse for "THE BIGOT'S"
(h.ford) truck body.

Now that you mention that I looked at it again and it makes it look different. I think you have something there, and in that case it doesn't look as funky knowing that.

I think that they both may be photoshopped

Very unique looking vehicle.

Someone spend a lot of time and money
on this project and it looks like nothing
out there.

I'm just wondering what the
gas mileage is on that old ford.
