Cool dude!
Those pics of pops are so cool! I haven't seen any of those in years! He sure had a lot of fun back then.
Hey is that little one at top of Don's boat before he put the stocker in it? And are those glass shards imbedded in that piston eek! ?
So you're finally gonna get your own boat to blow up. 'Bout time, dude. That's a sweet looking Eliminator. Where's it at?
It looks like I'm still going to be the slow boat in crowd :confused: .
I'll talk to you later.

That one of donny is before the stocker w/ the butterflys on it. That Daytona is down south outside of L.A. Its bad dude. The guy told me its a 454 13 to 1. Looks bitchin.
Take Care Ryan

Ryan, What are you going to tow that elim. with? Not your Jetta eek! ... Now you'll have to get a P/U too. I hope you have better luck with the higher compression than your bro's 540. Are you going to the CART race with pops?

John, I'm going to tow it w/ the Burb. Im going to keep it where dad keeps the crush so if it comes down to it we will tow dans boat up drop it in and then come back and get mine. I actually just got of the phone w/ the guy. He's a great hot boater; real straight up. Since i was the first to contact him, he is holding it for me till i get the $$$ even though he has had many other offers. He is even going to take off work to meet us on thurs so we can do a leak down and throw it in some water and run it. Great Guy. I let you know when i go up to Pedro w/ it. It will probably be just for a day. I'll keep you posted. Ryan

Let me know when you go up to the lake with it. If it's on a Sunday, maybe I can take a ride out there to check it out.
Now we've got to get Doug to buy a boat... :D

Sanger boys,
Here's a couple of pics of my new Rogers of the before variety.
http://home.att.net/~j.f.palmer/rogers_pics/patfront.jpg
http://home.att.net/~j.f.palmer/rogers_pics/Bare_bilge.jpg
Since those pics were taken, I've removed everything except the helm, the gauges(to make it easier to wire up the new ones) and the pump. I've re-done the tanks(bigger pick-up tubes, new senders and re-painted) and they are ready to re-install. I'm getting ready to put some gelcoat down in the bilge and on the inside of the transom. After that, new carpet and interior. The block is done, so I'm going to get the build started soon, also.
Of course it will be a while before there are any after pics.
