Despite having original drives and possibly in need of engine comp attention this at first glance appears to be a decent price.. Any thoughts?

Looks pretty good, but since it is a '73 it's pretty old now. If you're serious about it, go look at it, or get one of the fellas to do a survey. I'd make an offer on it if the survey turned out favorable.
I love how slick the boat looks. There are no interior pics tho...

There was a 35 Cigarette, motors, drives, trailer that just sold in Virginia for $ 6000. I'm telling you... The day will come when this stuff goes negative... Too much of a liability. This particular magnum... with 20 k to get it running is worth??? 15k? Unless someone just hates their own net equity and they want to do everything possible to reduce it.

the boat had been terribly misrepresented.
I'm not interested in this particular Magnum but, I really liked that 27' that was up in Jersey a while ago "hot nutz" the blue and white hull...I liked the set up and the choice of rigging placement, I don't know who would ever want to sit down but then again I'm kinda traditional...

The early Volvo drives did not have factory trimable drives, just tilt. We all made our own using Merc pumps & cylinders. Here is a set on this Bertram Baron I help make back around 1976.
