Got my seats done on my Anthony today.. The 402 is still at the machine shop. Just dropped the trailer off at my mechanic to do the bearings.. I'm thinking the seats are to plain but maybe they will grow on me. Before pic and after.

Why is it bad on a pump to run it out of water? I've done in the past and get grief for it!!! Ive never done it for very long as my motor runs on gas not alcohol!! But I've never had any problems....

Interior / Fiberglass or wood?

« on: March 24, 2012, 10:27:53 PM »

Was wondering if building all my seats out of glass would be wise or should I use wood or both.. I want them as light as I can make them but want them easy to cover too...
What do you guys think?
