what do i have?

[61 jetdeville]

just bought an old new boat and am not sure what i have-i drove it last year and know it runs good and is solid but my buddy that gave it to me didn't know much about it-it is a chrysler 55 electronic model no 55762 serial no 1091-i was suprised to find out it was made in barrie ontario canada-right in my backyard-the boat and motor are definately matched from factory but the hull has no name or identifying marks-did chrysler make a fiberglass hull with their motors?(first naive question)can anyone help me identify my new toy?i would say around late 70's-any help appreciated-thanx

Yes Chrysler did make boats:<br /><br />1965 Chrysler acquires outboard engine business of West-Bend Co., Hartford, WI. and Lone Star Boat Co., Plano, TX., which becomes Chrysler Boat Corporation.<br /><br />check this website out they may be able to help identify your boat a or at least have info on chrysler boats<br /><br /> http://www.fiberglassics.com/
