[FWDLK] Foward Look Boats

[Lou <email4lou@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Those old finned fiberglass boats are cool.  For a couple years now I've been wanting to get one to tow behind my '59 Dodge.  There were a gazillion different ones built.   Some of those boat manufacturers obviously ripped off their designs from the auto companies...or vice versa??  That Sea Fury on ebay I always thought looks more like a '55 Pontiac with fins.
Check out  http://www.fiberglassics.com/  and especially these:

Rip off of the '59 Cadillac, done in 1957!! by the CADILLIC BOATcompany: (even their logo looks like GM's Cadillac script) Maybe Cadillac, teh car company actually got their fin design from the boat??
