The new project made it home safe and sound, big thanks to Chris for giving it up and Brian for dragging it back here from Arizona

No motor, total project, but it is an original V-8 boat and all the parts are there, well at least the important ones

If'n it's already there. And just minding it's own business. I'd leave it alone ...

But it's your boat.
