Looking for the OLDER style ie: M/T, Edelbrock, Offy, Cal Custom, etc. NOT the newer Ford Racing or fabricated style. Also Damaged, cracked, broken is fine I can weld them up if needed, going for a "70's period look".
 Thanks, Ken (chopperimpala@yahoo.com)

Yeah thats funny, it does seem that way doesn't it! :screwy: Motor runs GREAT, ALL the aluminum, the mounts, adapters, complete Jet, everything had all been polished at one time. So everything is very nice and smooth so some hours with a buffing wheel will bring it all out. Lots of bumps and bruises in the glass though, but fixable. paid a grand for it and am Happy.
  I do have lots of crap in the background don't I !!! Several '63/'64 Impalas, a '30 Chevy, '50 Chevy and a '56 Ford 2 door sedan EVERYTHING is a project though.

Just introducing myself. I am Ken (chopperimpala here on the board)
 I live in Spokane, Wa and yes I know there are several NW Jet boat sites (which I am a member of) I am an original San Diego, So. Cal. guy!!!
 So, with that being said, ... I went searching for So Cal  jet boat / vintage jet boat sites and I found you guys.
  While I am in Spo-SUCK-ane, I am actively seeking the "great move" BACK HOME!!!! Grew up in Kearny Mesa in Diego just off of Linda Vista road...GOD I MISS HOME!!!
 Anyways, I am a NEW owner of a Jet boat ('78 Marlin W/ a tunnel rammed 460 and a Berkley Jet), I have been a hot rodder/lowrider/harley /Jet boat lover for most of my 43 years of life.
  Lurked on here for a loooong time before I joined and figured I would fit in with all you.
 Thanks, and nice to meet you all, but "be nice", remember  I am a new guy...Ha ha ha
  Thanks,  Ken
