Anybody on the board have it.I used to run around with the guy a bit back in the early 80s who bought it new.I think it was a 1980 he was in Holland Michigan.He said it was the 1st factory 370 TRS package in a 18.All i remember is it would lean like a mutha during acceleration and deceleration.It had brown topsides with creme deck and bottom

Pretty sure I remember it.. didn't it have two humps for the risers? If I remember the correct boat it would have been last winter I believe

The last link is not it and the first one is gone.If it had little humps for the risers that would be the one.Dark brown and creme.

If I remember correctly, all the BB TRS 18's had the bump for each riser and a bump for the carb...three bumps total.

This is one I bought about a year ago for parts. Took what I needed and gave the rest to a friend. He is planning on restoring it with a big block and keeping the TRS. The hatch has the 2 exhaust humps, but no center hump.

Madcow was that boat painted with a roller? That might be it if it is Brown underneath .It got wrecked pretty good at one time when the trailer left the car.

The paint job was not good, but I would not say "roller". looked like it was maroon underneeth. Don't know what was under that. Don't have the hull # ,but I do know it is an 81. And I'm fairly certain the exhaust was rear riser, because the drip rail was cut away in the back.
