Russ ,,look's like you have a Lancer that's a later one that's good,, the power trime is a factory unit,,the early one's had home made chevy motor mount's for the transome bracket. Replace the tiller arm steering,, and the drive is a Stearn power SP,, not bad. The rest is up to you, how much you want to clean up and modernize. Mark

Thanks for all the info Mark. I did not buy it yet. I love the lines of the boat and the fact that it is a single engine. I want to customize it. I really just wanted to see if was worth sinking some money into and if it would ride as good as a Magnum. I am aware that it is cheaper to buy a restored one than do the work myself. But I like to do the work myself and do a little at a time. I'm a low buck guy. LOL.

You do great work Bud. Your stuff look very trick! But my best skill is painting. I was a auto painter for 18 years or so. So I can redo the finish for the price of paint. Thanks for offer.

Buy a mag you wont be sorry, Jim sold some real junk in his day. I know I had a so called new boat it was about half new and half out of a junk yard. He cashed the check and forgot who I was one hour later.

Here are two of the best examples of Jim's Clem's boat's, both were rigged by their owner's. The black one Mariah,, I helped out on, back then [1979] you had to make all your custom bracket's, the details on this boat would still stand up to today's standards. Little Miss Dangerous raced by Dan H,, had a great racing heritage, later I beleive became Mr Zip.
