Sounds on the high side. I'm doing all my wood/glass work and I'm gonna be paying 1800 for new foam and material and I have an open bow.

Mine was stiff when working it back and forth on the trailer.
Once I got it on the water and under power, it was amazing!

When I was working on interior I had a few quotes at $2K to $3500.  I made my seat frames and took them to Martinez Marine Interiors in Corona and they hooked me up for about $1K.  Look around a bit and you can find someone to do it for a more reasonable price, but marine interior is different than automotive interior so watch were you take it.

There's probably a few shops in your area that are willing to give you a good rate for quality work. Especially if you can handle some labor yourself. I like to walk the shop and see how organized they roll and scope out any current projects of theirs.

And material is important, I'm using marine stuff from Softside, they seem to have a good, heavy feel.

jetjunky,

That looks killer.. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Do yourself a favor though. Go get the correct distributor ca for that distributor......

That cap is an automotive one, it will have a vent hole in it. The correct one should be blue and have a gasket and no vent hole....

Sorry, it's my nature...I am very OCD when it comes to closed engines... :screwy: Would hate to see that awesome interior get torched.
