Title: Saw this poor girl hiding behind a fence.
Post by: Ken on April 07, 2016, 11:34:01 AM
Saw this down the street at a 4x4 shop in Pomona. No engine, dual axle trailer. Been sitting like that for the last 7 months since I've been down here.

This one is rotting away in a yard right by my house. Boat is named "Insanity". Supposedly had a blown BBC in it at one point. I almost bought this boat a few years back, but didn't have the time and money to spend on it. It's been sitting like this for at least 5 years.  :thumbdown:

ill try to get pics, but theres what looks like a southwind sitting in a field by my old house. Complete with an engine and a diverter. Literally sitting there rotting...

Been there the 10 years i lived here

The owners dad is the one who bought my sleekcraft hull/trailer off of me. and he says that it does 200 mph... His son had it built.

Its been sitting out in the rain/weather/sun un covered for atleast 10 years

I had to take a break from it to get my '31 further along in the build. I'm hoping to have the rest of the braided stainless replaced with hardline and fire it before Memorial Day.

Ryan, I know who owns that boat. I've looked at it a few times could pick it up for like $400 as it trailer and all but I have no where to put it and it needs some serious love!  Text me if you want the info.

Looking for a machine shop to deck my exhaust manifolds? Should I have the risers decked too? Or just manifolds. I'm in Orange County, CA

Welcome...

Any competent automotive machine shop should be able to do that, or maybe a bastard file? (aluminum logs and snails?)
