 I am ashamed to admit its still sitting on the side of the garage (under its cover and under a canopy).  Yes it runs, but no it hasn't been in the water yet.  I just found a place that still has some closeout steering cables for it (will be ordered next week).  As soon as the "little Eliminator" is done I'll get to work on it (building new interior).  It still needs int, gauges, steering cables, and to have the motor serviced (water pump, carbs cleaned and synced, etc), oh yea and that little crack still needs to be fixed .  Maybe by the end of summer, if I keep it.   :-\

 Well that makes 3 of you guys that might want it, got a PM from Mark too.

 So, heres the deal. I need to get it wet before I make a decision.  I have been told it will be fast and ride like a Cadillac.  And I know I'm kinda stupid , but I dont like things that ride like daycruizers  :screwy: .  After the little boat is done I'll get on this one and let you guys know.  :-\

that daytona is going to be a tug boat, ride like shit, won't handle any sort of chop, will hit 35 if you are lucky (on perfect water, with a tail wind), i know i am missing something >:D  jk

once you run it, you will change your mind and want to keep it ;D

but i still want in the running if it comes for sale
