Hi my name is Talon. My dad Steve and I just bought one the exact same as yours except the previous owner did some modifications to it. I have attached a picture.

In the late 50's my dad got the distributorship for Terra Marina Houseboats in Central Kentucky near Lake Cumberland. We had two models, I think the smaller one was about 20 ft. and the larger one about 28 ft. He took the larger one to the Louisville Boat Show around 1958 or 1959, can't remember exactly, but we pulled it with a 1956 chevy. He only sold the two and it took a long time. They didn't make them long.
I am trying to find some of the family pictures of it and will post when I do.

Still waiting patiently on those pics...
