About a year ago I was looking at a web-site on the net. I saw this ad for a 1976 Schiada 22f.t. Daycruiser.The only thing that caught my eye was the V-Drive. I e-mailed the guy asking for some pictures. He sent me a pile of pictures. We talked on the phone a couple times.
About three months later I went to look at the boat. It was located in a little town outside of Philadelphia P.A.
When I saw the boat and the Elliss trailer I thought Shit this thing is kinda cool. So he shows me this list of stuff done to the motor. 454 completly rebuilt Sqaure port heads, Edelbrock intake, Turbo-400 transmission with complete rebuild. Its really to bad the BOOB tossed the interior in the trash. The price was $5500.....
At this point the wife is like NO WAY! I already had 4 boats. So I told the guy I have got to sell a boat.
Fast forward one year and about 10 e-mails from the guy saying I will take LESS. He finally calls me and says look I will take $2500 for it.
I still had not been able to sell a boat. I was like well how about $2250 and he said come and GET IT!!!!!!! http://www.plauder-smilies.com/jump.gif
At the point of getting it home I really had no idea how much it was worth.
Then I located this web site....I was like HOLY SHIT!!!! That guy wants that much for a SCHIADA http://www.plauder-smilies.com/lol2.gif
