Truthfully, I think Dave was a little skeptical of the boat when it arrived at his place. But when he sanded the side at the transom and found the original gel and ghosts of the original lettering, he became possessed. There are things in that boat that the average person would never notice and Dave refused to let them slide. Everything from the steering wheel, fuel lines, fuel tank, even bolts, the smallest things had him driven to perfection. He has done a few restos of boats and dragsters, but this thing went over the top with him. It took its toll on him as well. I don't think there is another project he was so glad to see done and gone.

I have CRS. Met the owner twice now and j can't remember his name. Anyway, not getting it wet this weekend but he did say he would fire it up tomorrow. Beautiful boat for sure, and he's very proud of it. Who wouldn't be

Right down the Phisohex primer bottle. I remember the search for the steering wheel. He found several that were very close, but not exact (nobody would have noticed the difference). Dave was finally able to track down the exact wheel.
