1985 Rogers 20.5 Classic
« on: June 12, 2010, 06:09:39 PM »
Alright guys, nobody coughed up the cash for the Rogers soooo.... I guess i'll just have to build it. We already started to block it out, we were going to gel it but the paint is so damn thick were going to paint it. The boat has very few stress cracks in it and only a few chips. Were filling every single hole in the boat except the guages and steering. No buttons or switches will be seen anywhere. INTHERED is coming down this week to help get it together because otherwise it will never get done. I have the short block done on the twin turbo motor(pics coming soon) you guys dont get to see it until its a little further done.

Red and white w/ a little yellow pinstripe would look tits IMHO.    Oh yeah that's how my boat is painted.   ;D

We have most of the holes filled and the fiberglass work done. A little more fill tonight and we should be able to prime it tomorrow night. I have all of my pump parts i just need to drop it of at http://www.finneys.com/marine.html to get it powdercoated. My billet steering wheel and extended steering collom should be here next week along with my gas pedal.

Here is the latest fiasco, the wheels on the trailer are old school four blade Cragers. There 13 x 10s which take a 215/50/13 tire. If you dont understand what im talking about just call your local tire store and ask them for that size. At first all i could find was a slick racing tire at $230 a piece, but tire rack had some nice radials for $57 a tire. Still sort of expensive for a trailer but what is really the cost of looking cool. Anyway i got the tires mounted and balanced today, cleaned up and put back on.
