Nice Eric! Who says you get what you pay for. You got a lot more than you paid for.

Looks good. Would be nice if you gave the guy (Squeezing Spectra) that built that engine a little plug.

WIRING, SEATS, GAUGES, ELECTRICAL, SIDE MOLDINGS, REGISTRATION, STEARING WEEL IS DONE, ALL ACCESSORIES ARE FINISHED AND YOU'LL SEE PICS OF IT ON THE LAKE NEXT WEEK.
the valve covers are verrrry cool. no leaks and look awsome. they sell them at the pamona swap meet and pretty much all speed shops should be able to get them. i have the same ones on my southwind and they do look very good.

I knew it wasn't you, he looks a awed by the power of your hand tools!
I'm glad you're a putting your good fortune to use. I was thinking that a free boat would get parted out or resold. It is good karma that you are enjoying it. :cool:
