    Only thing left is to get the custome seat cover made sometime in January and fire this beast up. Calling this project completed as far as this thread goes. Appreciate all the interest and comments. Will be my last boat project for a while, got a couple of special motor projects up next that will take a couple of years probably.

    HOWEVER I will be looking for the next candidate for a restoration...

    Thanks again !!!!!!

    Looks great! Did you make the mold off a seat you already had or did you make a mold from scratch?

    Great job Tom, looks great...can't wait to here how it runs. Should be a fun ride for ya. I started another project a year ago but blew out my shoulder and need a shoulder replacement so that put my project on hold for awhile...have another boat in my sights too. Hope I don't get too old and feeble to finish them...lol. Look forward to your next project.

    Not a lefty. Shifter mounted to the left so when you exit the boat turning left you don’t get caught on it. ��

    Very cool. I admire the originality you create in your restorations. No one these days, goes to the extent you do. Some try, but just don't get there, like you do.

    No clue on the gun jet size. Was a low pressure gravity feed set up.
