Anybody ever hear of a Supra Star? I came across this while looking for a Sun Sport. Looks just like a Beast to me. If that 440 runs, it doesn't look like too bad of a deal for someone looking for a beefy closed bow.

I doubt it has a 440 that is a Chrysler engine more likely a 454 Chevy. Looks like a great project boat. I have never seen a Supra Star maybe just re tagged Beast by the owner.

Never heard of a Supra Star, but looks like the old Rider/Beast hull. I think Supra did use the 440 in the early 80's and switched to the 454 as the BB option mid 80's.

Does indeed look like a good resto candidate, especially for someone on big water.

Supra had 4 models in 1983.... Beast, Rider, Sport and the Star..... Could not find much info about the Star and Sport. If the star was an open bow like the Rider I might be in the truck heading south. At least the boat is free with the purchase of a trailer.

I bet you could get the paddle thrown in for free too! :D

be a little worried about the 440, hard to find parts and exspensive when you do. but at that price its worth a shot

But a 6 pack on the intake would look way cool.
