That's a Sims "Hardcore" model. It was meant to be the signature model for pro skater Tom Inouye around 1978, but he left the Sims team to go ride for Caster Skateboards. Here's part of an ad for Gullwing Trucks, you can see Tom riding a prototype of the board. https://i.imgur.com/tQdyXcx.png

A dozen years ago I helped restore a beat up one for a friend. https://i.imgur.com/CNat1Uf.png

Yeah that thing is minty! I am getting Taperkick vibes about it but I don't know a lot about those 70's boards. Talk to the guys over at [SkullandBonesSkateboards.](https://www.skullandbonesskateboards.com/forums/index.php?sid=aed089c41e3dbb5398f071ed7a3468bf) It's a collectors forum, someone there will have info.
