1985 Miller-completely redone 5 yrs ago and disassembled last year(we all have our long stories). The boat needs to be put back together. Berkeley Pump with jetovator is rebuilt, 0 hrs. A stock remanufactured 454 including new starter and new carb., 0 hrs. All parts to assemble are here with the exception of some gaskets, and nuts and bolts. It will need the exhaust adapters to go from 2 7/8" exhaust manifolds to 4" tips. It does come with a bimini top. The trailer does need new bunks. If you have mechanical ability you could have this boat up and running in a weekend. I just don't have the time. I'm looking for $8,000 OBO. Bill

Would you be interested in trading for a pristine 21' Eliminator river cruiser v-drive? Has an Art Carr T-400 and Casale C500 v-drive with elec cav plates on tandem Comp trailer. Boat is beautifull and only needs a long block to be finished. After looking at you post, I see you don't have the time to finish that one, so I'm guessing you don't want to trade any projects........ Just fishing.

Thanks for posting the picture El Prosecuter!!!
CP Dad: I appreciate the offer but I do have too many projects going right now-I do have a mercruiser Gen 5 454 long block sitting in the garage if you are interested-it's 30 over, 4 bolt mains, heads are fresh with oversize exhaust valves. The short block needs to be disassembled and cleaned up, the engine had about 20 hrs on it when I discovered the cam keeper had never been installed causing it to skip time and burn some valves. I checked all the components and they are in great shape. Has a cam but I would not use it. Below, I listed the items you would need to get with approx. cost.
Timing Chain $77
Cam Keeper $0
Gaskets $100
Cam & Lifters $124
Push rods $43
Plugs $16
plug wires $80
oil pump $100
head bolts $50
The engine would be capable of 500+hp depending on cam and intake system. I would like to get $1,500. let me know...
