Gotta be one of the sweetest combos ever! We can applaud Luke for snapping these ripper pics of "HUSTLER" and her Ranchero companion spotted yesterday while at Pykes Creek for a magazine shoot. A huge thank-you to gentlemen Marz & Tony for allowing us to post this very special lady once again. *** Hit their 'HUSTLER' label below to view more amazing pics.

DeleteAwesome boat. My father, Dennis Collins of Ballarat was the one who restored it. He purchased it from Horsham, and it was bright yellow. I helped strip it, and saw it go from just another wooden boat to the beast you see today. I was the poor bunny who sat inside while we made sure that every one of those copper rivets was tight. No expense was spared. The engine, a Y-block was built by Ted Robinson Racing in Ballarat, who built many of these back in the day. The sound of the engine through those copper pipes was unreal. Dad chased up the ownership, ending up finding that it was one of the Mandys.
