Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

Ahoy all, Quickly Too now has a single plane manifold with a 465 Holley attached.

Big shout out to my Victorian friends who are doing tougher than the rest of us, all the best ...

Ahoy and welcome Coddo! The name plates are hard to obtain unless you get a boat with it, suffice to say expect to pay $$$ if you can get one. I am currently based on the Sunshine Coast and regularly go to Hervey Bay so if your interested I could catch up with you next time I am up? Good luck with r...
