To bad I don't have a partner for a boat right now. I have most of the parts in my shop to rebuild that boat. Hardest things for me would be the bolsters, sngine hatch and interior stuff.

I gots 2 engines, and a set of tabs pumps etc. I can get killer deals on new gimbles, and then I would have to buy drives and headers exhaust etc.

Would it be a big deal to convert it to big blocks? Would you need to change the engine mounts on the stringers? Just curious what all is entailed as far as getting the engines to line up correctly.

I wouldn't think it would be that hard to do.

Really about the only thing you won't be able to negotiate on will be getting the interor parts and the engine hatch, rams, swim platform etc from cigarette again.

I think those parts will be about as much as the boat itself is going tobe.

I'd build a raised hatch - old school apache style. Try and squezze in a short stagger setup with some supercharged 850's and NXT drives, maybe add some extension boxes if I need more room. Then it would be worth something

You still have those blower motors

That would be a killer ride.

Yeah, still got em. Get about 2 calls a week on them, but most of the guys are from N east etc and don't want to get involved with the freight.

You have all the parts.......

You could have your rigging swapped over, and then sell your hull. You'd uprade to a TS with some of the best Mystique paint out there for probably a "reasonable" cost (depending on what you recoup on yours vs get this for)?

Or, you cculd then take your time rigging yours out when you come across deals, and sell it complete (or who doesn't need a backup Cig).

Well hell, I thought it had the seats & other obviouus parts?! You mean it has NO interior at all? Basically it's shell with some gauges?

I retract my previous thoughts knowing that it is stripped COMPLETELY. I thought it just needed motors, headers, & drives. I figured with just that, you could find a race team looking to unload that equipment for a pretty good deal. My fault, I misread the info.


Edit: ....and wtf happened to the SEATS??
