i think its a Billings he said he had built it over 20 years ago and had been in the loft since and never been on the water

He also would nt take any thing for it all he wants is to see it on the lake
so going to have a hunt in some draws and find a couple of motors

That looks very 60's ish. What about looking at the old kids series called Stingray? I seem to recall a surface craft in the series that was styled very similarly, could make for an interesting model.
