Can judging from the front hull lights determine what year maltese this is.
I saw this MAGNUM too, it's a 1979, 280 TRS... $7.9K in Miami,Fl. sent it to a friend who has 4 MAGNUM'S allready. P.S. bow lights don't tell the year. "HIGH LIFE"
Docking Lights... OUCH!
Such an Iconic boat, the docking lights suck.
Such a cool boat.
Spoke to the owner, says it's a '69 - Really didn't think a later model ('79 matese) had those front lamps to begin with.....wonder if anybody took an
up close on this boat, it would give me a heads up before I go to Miami. Boat does look like it sent some time in the water though.
Magnum didn't make a Maltese in '69, that I remember.
i have seen that boat before hear in miami....If your really intrested i can go look at it for you. Shoot me an email Premierfrc@aol.com
Donz, The side bar to going to Miami for the boat show was to look up this boat. Hey, if things don't happen I do appreciate the offer and will let you know, thanks
I called the guy, said it's an auction boat and papers say it's a '69 - I love it when nothing makes sense!
TRS wasn't out until 1975 model boats
I would definitely do some homework on the history before even considering a purchase. Sounds like someone got shifty with the title at some point in that boats past. Its certainly not a 69, may not be worth the hassle.
Friend of mine purchased a Vette one time and had it for several years. Title and numbers mated up to the car but apparently there was a notary discrepancy at some point in the cars past, not much he could do to see it coming. When he listed the car in a local photo ad paper a guy showed up to look at the car, looked it over and left. Showed up a few hours later with a title and a sherrif and took his car home. My friend could only go after the guy he got it from years ago and that turned out to be futile at best. Do your homework! Fishy things usually smell that way for a reason . . . .
hmmm . . . . i believe that boat may be an onion . . .
In the past Magnums have been the choice of scammers. :eek::eek: If your gut feeling :ack2: says dont,,, walk away. From the pic's she looks like she was neglected & will need much work.
most 68 and 69,s had volvo.s in them..be carefull ?
