Here is a few before and after pics of Rick Conklin's T1 after Jack fixes it from his bad accident a few months ago. Another awesome job by Jack and Big Congrads to Rick for getting his baby back. :D p.s These pics was taken via my cell phone but you can still see how BEUTIFUL it turned out....:thumbsup:

Rich....thats straight up (YELLOWALLISON) Yeallr:D with no flake in the clear.:D . I took those pics this morning just before Rick headed to ARK to rig it out. The purple flames came out good but hard to tell via my 50$ cell phone.
I have some better pics on my camera but the USB cord is at home...:(

Look's great, kinda lookin like the ol' "Bottom Dweller" that's now in the hands of Bill Henderson.(Now named "Kitty Kitty Bang Bang")
Maybe the yellow will make it a money boat, whatcha think Rick?
I was glad to hear when Rick told me Jack could fix his boat. Looks like it turned out great. Can't wait to see it on the water.

Well all I can say is THANKS!!!!! To many that helped me, I left my house Sunday morning to head to Mirage 243's to drop off parts and pick parts up plus just to visit with Mel and Bill. Monday off to Jacksonville got there Monday evening and stayed with Yellowallison plus to see his AWESOME house restoration. Tuesday morning to FTP to see Jack and his crew, well you see the work that the FTP crew did man its hard to believe that a few months ago I thought it was headed to the scrap pile!!!!!!!!
As far as the ????? of how much well lets just say it was cheaper than a new boat and the rest is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, LOL all you have to do is buy a new boat from Jack, blow it over, tear it up and call Jack and then you will know, was treated like a family member and not just a customer!! Thanks Jack
After picking the boat up Tuesday morning it was off to Prattsville, Ar to my friend Kevin Bryants AKA K&J MArine, stayed with them Tuesday night, thanks Julie for the breakfast Wed morning, to Kevins shop wed morning and unloaded the parts,boat and talked about the rigging with Kevin and how we will doll it up, back in the truck in the afternoon to head back to Ottawa, Il. made it home at 2300 in time to give my BIGGEST SPONSOR a BIG NEW YEARS kiss when midnight got here, thanks Chris. All total was over 2700 miles and 44 hours of drive time in the truck. Can't wait to go RACING!!!!!
