Well, it's getting close! My boat is almost done for the season. I'm waiting on the upholsterer to finish my seats. Once I get them and mount them, I can nail down the controls. I still need to install the blower belt and guard, install the diverter, finish the plumbing and an have an adjustment by Bassett to the headers. Then she's ready for the water!

looking good man. that is one sweet 19 bonneville you got there. sure hope i get to see it up close some day. the only thing i would recommend is taking that rogers emblem off the dash and installing a grab handle. oh and ship the emblem to me. :D

Thanks Cyclone and Vic!
I doubt I'll have it done before months end. I'm seriously lacking funds for plumbing(superdave013 and his deals are helping :) ), but I'm working on it.
I'll post some better pics tomorrow, when I get it home. I have the boat in hiding(from the city, I've been cited for having boats in my driveway for the last 5 years! All of a sudden, it's a crime! Pricks!) at a buddy's house out in the sticks.

You won't beat Superdave as far as pricing and convenience goes, I know, I looked ;)
That boat looks great, I must say I am jealous. I wish my poor little jet boat had a full blower instead of half...
