Rob is out of town until Friday and will check this thread when he returns.

Did you not get our e-mail response? We have the piece you need that we just took off. Is it the piece with the ashtray/cupholder? We are redesigning it so we will have the original piece if that's what you're looking for.

Sorry if you didn't get our response.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Lookin good...........almost ready for paint??????? :cool:

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Thanks Barb! I had your e-mail too. If you dont need this piece anymore I liked to BUY this from you. You know over here we love the originalstyle of US powerboats and I need just this piece. (little bit concervative maybe...)

Have a nice weekend
Greetings from Stockholm

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Not a problem Mange, you can HAVE the piece, just pay for the shipping and we're good. Rob and I talked about that last night so it's not a problem. Once we get the piece back from Lofty we'll get your address and send it your way. We don't want you to pay for the part, we would have just thrown it away.

Have a good weekend from a very cold Cleveland Ohio.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Has anyone seen any tricked out stingers around here???? :rolleyes: :D :D :D :D :D

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Oh, you'll know when you see a tricked out Stinger.....hopefully it'll start seeing some paint in the next 7-10 days. Rob is really sick right now so he's not able to work on it at all.....just what we need, huh? Oh well, lake is frozen anyway so we have plenty of time!

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Tell Robby to get back to work........Hope he's feeling better soon. Your right, no rush right now?????? Blah weather :(


Hopefully spring is coming soon?????? It sure doesn't look like it.... :(

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

We are living in a small part of the US where winter refuses to release it's ugly, cold grip. Extremely depressing!!!

If you're bored we're always looking for help on the boat :evilb:

1984 312

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

WOW,about time someone put a pic in.Thats a cool lookin Stinger.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

It was a great boat. Sold it about a year ago.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

We could use an update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D Happy birthday Barb. :evilb: :evilb: :cool: :cool:

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Thanks sweetie for the birthday wishes! I have some pics I need to download that I will try and get to this weekend. Can't wait to see your boat now that the clear is done. Hears it's really, really nice.

Rob has had me blocking this week....my arms and neck are killing me.......next thing you know he'll teach me how to use a paint gun :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :D

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Man..... All you need is a new panel in that boat and she'll be looking seeeeet :D

I'm pickeing them up in the AM from powder coating and boxing them up ASAP to send to you. Along with your old panels. Sorry for the long delay but we're in full boating season out here. :cool:

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

You're doing a great job on that fairing, keep it up!

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

BTW, don't even THINK of mounting the rails back on her!!! Look how sleek she looks. I love that cclean deck look. makes the boat look longer and thinner.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

I really like the wind screen...but do you still have the original windshield? And if so, what condition is it in? I own a 1987 31 Stinger w/225 outboards on a Porta bracket and am almost ready to paint mine also. However, the windshield I have is questionable. So you can e-mail me at [email protected] if you'd like.i

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

pt109, any pics of the 314 Stinger??

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Yes we have the original windshield and it is in excellent shape. Will e-mail you and work out any details if you're interested. I'm looking to move it out of the garage!

Mange, we have that part if you're still interested also. Lofty is sending the originals back and I should have them in a week. PM me your address if you're still interested.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

OK, latest update on the boat. The windshield has taken a considerable amount of time to do....more than I had imagined. Won't ever tackle a project like this again, but it'll be worth it when the paint flies.

Am 3/4 of the way done blocking the boat and will be laying basecoat by the end of the week and color hopefully by the weekend.

Lofty is getting the panel back to us this week for the gauges which will also be ordered this week and that's moving along well.

We are taking off the cabin door and replacing with a vinyl zipper door. We're having a ChrisCraft logo embroidered on the panel and stencils made for the new paint. We're putting the ChrisCraft logo on the back of both sides of the boat, plus we're place Stinger312 on each side below the windshield.

Project is moving slower than I wanted, but there's plenty of time and things are starting to move along nicely.

Here are some updated pics.

Re: Winter Project Progress
 

Thanks Lofty. Looking forward to getting the panels this week. Ditto on the rails.......they're not going back on.

Thanks for all your help. We'll get the panels painted and get them back to you in a few weeks, hopefully sooner.

Rob
