What make are those tires from tire rack? There 215/50/13s? I have some 13 inch old school mags and Im having a hell of a time finding rubber!

Those top ones better not be mine!  I can vouch for the plates by ironman, They look great in person!

Yah, One pictures the left tank and ones the right. Only time will tell if my lack of fiberglassing skills will be a problem or not. We usually use PPG paints, get it for a good price. Im kind of worried about how it will hold up to gas/oil spills. I know my boats, NOTHINGS clean around me. Thanks for the link, Ill have to see what the PPG rep says about marine apps to decide what way Im headed with paint.

Thats for sale.. No idea what to ask for it. I hate when people say "make offer" but Im lost on an asking price.

I woulda paid that in a heartbeat.. Thats not saying much though.. Im not really known for my "good deal" buys. Looks like a pretty badass boat though! Ill give yah 1500 deleivered to Cali.. 

Well, Just walked in from finishing the glass on the tanks and stringers. I feel really comfortable with the wood and straps holding the tanks, they feel REALLY solid. Damn things are there for the long haul now! Looks like I just gotta throw in the bulkhead and paint/carpet and Im back to the point where I was when I bought the damn thing!! Im thinking just a black single stage for the bilge area, any sugestions on cool ideas? Maybe carpet the sides between the hull and stringers? Heres a few pictures of todays progress. And yes, I over glass EVERYTHING! I have a problem... 

BBC Motor Plates

Ill try out the auction deal! I have some BBC Plates.. Front, rear, and flywheel cover. Looks like they can be shinned up pretty nice. I have no idea what they're out of. They came with a motor I bought off of CLs.



More Information

Hey, Im about to throw these heads on craiglist.. What do you think I should ask for? I got burned bad on the engine deal and Im trying to make a little bit back to get my stock 2 bolt going. I see these 990s going for 500-900 and these have work done to em, I just have no idea whats done to em.

Been there! Done that. Im the youngest, big brother loved having me check spark on his dirt bikes growing up. I stopped that when he had me test the 72 bronco. Well, I threw new plugs in her.. still running rough. I did find out that the squiter for the secondarys had some crap in it and wasnt working. Float level was too high. On the pavement it was fine, but if you were to shake the boat even a little gas would overflow into the carb. That was my main problem while running I think. Also found that my distributor cap was broken. The post that comes in from the coil was broken off so the spark had to jump. She runs great on the hose (like usual) so Ill have to take her out and see what the lake does. Thanks for the ideas!

Found a 78 Super Jet. Its complete with motor for 8500. 429 is kinda cool though!  http://humboldt.craigslist.org/boa/1766045338.html

3 weeks? I hate when people leave sold shit on craigslist! haha. Good buy for sure! Congrats.

It looks like a damn tank in the pictures. And honestly, my luck with these "deals" has completly broke my bank and I have nothing to show for it but a blown up motor and a boat with half a floor! The guy wants to trade some crap I have sitting around for it, thats the only reason Id consider getting it. Is the motor worth anything?
