I know you cant really tell me, I am looking for a ball park number, Guy is wanting to trade it to me so I need a good close range of value

1975 Eliminator, 4 seater, 514 Ford, Tunnel ram, Solid Red paint, Red and white Interior. Motor is supposed to be fresh. Berkley Jet with air adjustable trim. Boat is supposed to run 70 Mph

Boat is in good shape, 7.5 out of 10 for the whole boat..

paint this boat red, make the Chevy a Ford and you would have almost the exact boat this guy wants to trade,

Thanks, nothing special about an eliminator hull?..

Guy said it was supposed to be "Unsinkable", Nose is supposed to be filled with foam.

Might be worth more IMO - depends on what's up with that 514 - fords aren't usually cheap to build. If it's a stock iron headed cast piston and crank cheapy stroker 460 the $5k figure might be a little high. If it's a forged crank kasse headed bbf definately worth more.

Sadly it is a pretty mundane 514, I have Ford cars, if was a Kaase piece I would never of had to even think of trading, the motor would already be setting in my 64 Fairlane
