This will include all new machined, by yours truly, cav plate hardware, strut, prop shaft, stringer rails, engine plates, throttle and down pedal assembly, drive line cover and other miscellaneous hardware.
I had planned on doing this project a few years ago but life gets in the way sometimes. Now it is time to finish it. This is the boat, sorry all the pictures I have at the moment.

How the hell did I miss this thread this is the one I have been waiting for...:action-smiley-069:

Beautiful boat! Can I get more pictures of the interior especially the back seat area? I can't wait to see the throttle and down pedal assembly. I hate the way mine is set up.

I'm getting rid of the interior, if you want it for templates you're welcome to it.
You do realize that the Dimarcos were stretched in the cockpit area and 12"-16" though. You'll need to make adjustments for that.

Yes, I want it. The interior looks bitchin in the pictures. What are you doing different?

Do you have any pictures of the throttle and down pedal assembly? Are you still up to making some of the stuff I need?

Everything looks bitchin in pictures, just like porn actress's. :speechless-smiley-0
I thought you were taking your boat to somebody already? But yeah, I can make doubles of some things. The only problem is some of the stuff can't just be popped off the machine. Anything mounted to stringers is going to be one off. When I get closer to really banging parts out I'll get a hold of you and we can talk about it.

I just don't like the way the throttle and down pedal assembly is set up in my Spectra so I wanted to see how you are making yours Anything mounted to stringers is going to be one off.

It's go time I guess. We'll see how much I get done before summer and then it's going back together with what new parts I've made and what ever is left of the old stuff.

Yes it does need a detail, it's very dirty. Is that what you meant?:biggrin:
It's your typical 540.
