Stock #244849 1987 High Performance Checkmate Convincor with 496 whipple super charger. Completely redone. In the world of racing pedigree boats you've got Fountain, Cigarette, Eliminator, Baja and more, among them stretching back to the early 60's is Checkmate, founded for racing and have always been about racing.
