Sitting in an airport in San Jose right now and figured I'd start a thread on my 24 as well.
According to Pepe, its the old P51 "Bad Temper" raceboat. It was converted to OBs on a bracket at some point. I have some pics of that.it was run for a few races before the bad temper guys switched to tripple OBs and a 28.
Anyhow, doing some revisions to this one too and thought I'd start a thread, since Bob isn't answering my Cubs related texts...
I went after the cabin with a claw hammer sunday.
Pics to follow!

if he would clean the jaegermeister off the phone camera lens it probably wouldn't look so bad

Ha! I have one, I just never have it with me! I'm trying to get better. I did bring it to the circle boat races!
And brother... that's NOT Jaegermeister!

OK, a couple of oldtimey shots... Pepe told me that it originally looked just like "TV6 Perfect Escape". I don't have a picture of the 24 Bad Temper, but Pepe said if he finds one he'll let me know.
I do have a picture of the 28 Bad Temper (middle boat as I recall) and one of the team guys (over our fearless-leader's shoulder).

OK, so this is how she looks now... A pair of 1998 200 Yammies on an SMI bracket and the infamous "boner-in-sweat-pants" stand up bolsters.

So my plan right now is to lower the seat bases (gonna cut down the supports) so it's a sitdown boat and tear out the cabin floor (its a bit, um "rude") and then repaint the cabin with bare stringers. I'm also going to ultimately change the deck hatch, put 260 tabs on it, install hull mounted water pickups and redo the purple upolstery...
I was in the cabin Sunday with a claw hammer "fixing" the floor!
