On mine one of the studs snapped off when taking the nut off. Just let me know if you get it.

Will do.  I got the nuts off just fine, but when trying to hammer it out it didn't move at all.  I didn't want to hit it too hard for fear of breaking something.  Must be something simple.

BTW, what is the story behind your avatar?

It is a pic of me in the middle in orange and the 2 groomsmen for my wedding. I always said if I get married I was going to be in the orange Dumb & Dumber tux. First I got married shocked everyone and plus I wore the Tux. It was just my 2 year anniversary last week. Vegas Lost money on me. LOL

Ooh! Ooh! Would you please pull a pattern off the helm chair base & back?

edit: Mama looks proud ...

Doug, finally tore into CRUSH this weekend.  Here is what I found on the seats... totally trashed!  I took a few pics with measurements that might be useful to you, but as you can see, they all are rotten and falling apart. Everything was so distorted and falling apart, don't think I can get much of a pattern.  The rear bench seat I tried to salvage the frame, cushion, thinking someone might want that for a pattern as well.  But as you can see from the before and after I moved it pictures, it literaly unded up in a heap of pieces when I tried to move it around.    I think I'm safe in assuming that I can trash what's left of the seat frame and cushion, buckets, etc.?, correct?  Or does someone need a measurement?

few pics of the bench seat frame and foam.  Fell apart when removing the ski pylon and moving it around.  hope the trash man takes the pieces. Let me know if you need a measurement, but I'm sure there are better examples out there.

Would like to use this center console in Julius... will need to be reshot with gel... if it can be matched well enough?  Either that or wrap in vinyl... that would look 70s, wouldn't it?  the original color was awesome. In this picture it doesn't look too awful, but it's wet.  The cup holders are in good shape, and the lighter is still there  :)

This was in the console... a Pioneer "supertuner" mounted in what looks to me like a cut out of a Ford pickup dash... Is that right or can someone ID what it's from?

What really sucks as far as the hull is concerned if someone wanted to restore it...   the previous owner, what appears in their attempts to lift the motor to get the drive shaft/pump/bearing assemblies apart (I think they were trying to replace the pump bearings which look to be shot), apparently they didn't have a motor puller, so it looks like they used timbers across the back of the boat to crank and lift the engine with.  The hull is buckled on both the left and right sides from all the weight.  I don't know what else would have done that.  The wood on the inside of the engine compartment is bowed in on one side, and the other side it has separated.  They ruined this hull.

Plan to pull the complete 460 out this coming weekend.  It turns freely  :)

Shawn, I beat the snot out of that tow eye and could not get it to budge.

Has a newer 27gal poly tank that was installed.  Love the fuel gauge.

Laugh all you want at that fuel gauge but it will never go out and it will always give you a true reading. ;D

True... I just figured when I saw it I could look at the tank and tell when it's about 1/2 full.   I say that, but then I'll end up doing the same thing someday.  :)
