Hey, JP Bell, trying to get in touch w/ you. You sent me a mail thru Youtube stating that your father was the second owner, and you knew the serial number for the boat. I still have the boat and want to talk to you about it. Do me a favor and respond back to this post. Thanks! James
My uncle worked at Century in Manistee back in the 50's. Their big V8 in those days was a Cadillac engine which I believe was also a 390. I have a 1956 16' Resorter with a Gray Marine in-line 6 that I hope to restore some day.
I bought this boat last fall. It's a special boat in that it has the Chrysler 426 Wedge engine from the factory. Most 19' Resorters have the Ford 390....The 426 sealed the deal for me...
Ahhh the resorter, we sold ours a few years ago and bought a cornado

I'm so envious! I want one so bad- wish I could find one in the $7k range that needed a little restore.
