One more for the metal flake nation!!!lol
Thanks Jerry! I figured you would like it, flake rules!Quote:

The passenger seat was backwards like a ski racer.Attachment 38808Attachment 38810Attachment 38811Quote:

I know of a 570 inch pump gasser that ran the 034 boat to serious triple digits, that just happens to be for sale for real cheap. Would make a cool as hell lake hot rod. It is even painted to match.Quote:

And I know it will bolt up.
Or, I could build you a pro stock legal engine that would outrun the K. ???

Check with spudpilot on pb he worked at Cerney and might remember the boat or have old pics. The 8 turnbuckles cav was standardQuote:

Sean, that is a bitchin boat. If ever decide to sell it let me know.
Thanks Bob!Quote:
