This is so freakin fantastic!!! As a person who had the pleasure of watching Dieter Schulz in person, race his crafts at Havasu as a kid, I am truly thrilled to see one of those fabulous boats get the love and attention to be restored so beautifully! Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous restoration with us! Someday I hope I can get to see this boat run. Those 60's and 70's boats were so darned cool.
Found a page about Dieter Schulz (no "t" in the name) on a Google book link; regarding his win in Havasu in 67. Enjoy!

old thread but this beast is now headed to its new home in NORWAY. Hated to sell it but no good place to keep it inside.
Going to a great person that i know will take good care of it.....
Keeping the Schulze name alive.....
