Chrysler made all kinds of cool stuff in the 70’s. Motor boats, outboards, sailboats, these snow runners, even rockets in the 50’s. All came to a halt in the 80’s for the bailout. Then we got K cars.

Chrysler also made motorhomes . The Dodge Travco was ahead of its time in regards to aerodynamics . Basically the shape of an Airstream but in fiberglass . Was powered by a 413 cu in gas V8 .

My dad had a Chrysler boat. It was a brown and gold tri hull run about with a Chrysler badged Volvo 180/280 engine and drive. He repowered it and sold it because the tri hull was terrible in any kind of slop. The low hour drive and engine is still sitting in his garage as part of the collection we get to deal with…
