Re: Pics as promised...
I'll "agree" it's a fantastic boat when I "get her running and on the water again," which I don't think will take too very long.

Beautiful boat! As some of us are gear-heads, how about some pictures of the engine when you have a chance?
Thanks.

Re: Pics as promised...
Very nice ! Looks like your father in law loved and cared for that boat. It doesn't look like it will take much to get her going. Real cool !
Boats are to be made of wood, otherwise, God would have grown fiberglass trees.
Re: Pics as promised...
I wouldn't say he loved and cared for it the last 40 years. Here are a couple pics we'll call " before". As in, "before" I dug it out of the garage last week !!! You see, he's a real life HOARDER !!!
Some of you may shed a tear.......

Yikes !

Re: Pics as promised...
It's enough to make a full grown man cry isn't it? Other side of the Vette is a 1971 SkiDoo snowmobile he bought new and ran a little the first couple years then put the cover on it for the last 40 years or so. Good thing about his hoarding is at least he bought quality toys, eh?

Re: Pics as promised...
WOW!
What a great boat.
I know you lust for an older barrelback or maybe a racing runabout, but she is a beauty and I hope you come to appreciate all she is.
ENJOY

Re: Pics as promised...
She'll be a blast for sure. I love classic cars too and this is very similar. I do like the barrel backs way better, but the price was right on this 1, FREE !!! It'll be perfect for skiing and tubing the friends kids..

Re: Pics as promised...
Teacher, what happened to the Vette????
Re: Pics as promised...
He drove it thru 8-9 Ohio winters. It needs some work. Frame rust and been sitting since 1978 or so.
