TOPIC: My newest project

Good morning all, thank you for letting me join your site. I have looked before and its a great community. I have restored several boats in the past few years from a Barracuda to a magnolia a sunchaser sail boat and a couple of cruisers. I came across a 1956 Fabuglas 16' runabout in a barn in the state I live in. The hull is in good shape as is the transom. The Chrysler 70 is not original to the boat and it had not been stated in 5 years. It cranked right up. Has anybody seen one of these boats? I know the company is gone long ago but I need to find a picture of it so I can see what the seating arrangement was. I have a place at a large lake and will restore it and play with it down there. Thank you all, Peace be with you.

WELCOME ABOARD.

PURTY little rig, too.

yours, satx

X2 on the welcome, warshp. Also agree with satx, nice looking runabout! There is some info on the Fabuglas line in the library, but it starts about 1958?

We'd love to see some pics of your past projects, and any you care to share on this one as well. (We DO love the pics around here, LOL)

Here's a photo of a similar Fabuglas reputed to be a 1960. and a photo from 1958 Popular Boating magazine of a different model:
