01-09-2016 12:22 AMHey Jody, good to hear from you.
You're gonna keep it I guess. Cool.....
Fund reviewed it last. He knows more about what needs to be done to finish, "revive", it than anyone I think. Once we get that figured out, we'll make some calls to friends in that area.Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!

I had a feeling she'd keep it, that's why I never asked and shoo'd the early vultures away.
She has a sanded hull and deck, stripped. I believe the tank is ok. She'll need a considerable amount of paint work, inside and out.
It needs to be rigged and wired.
Needs interior, if I recall.
The exhaust is there, I think it is a working TRS drive, and the pumps, transom assembly is there.
There is a newly built (been sitting, but it's "new") 454 waiting to go in. I think Itllfly in Ohio built it.
So basically, has boat, power and drive and needs it all pretty and re-assembled.
It's an entire boat build. Just no hull layup.
I don't recall that any structural remediation is needed.
I would get hands-on with this if I were closer.

You're correct fund..... No structural just cosmetic. The engine hasn't been one the dyne but it's new. I need to get this done while I have funds. No pun intended fund!!!
