If you decide to take that on, if bought right I certainly would, and need a dash for the Bullet let me know. I have an original one, it is far from perfect but might give you something to work with temporarily, or for mock-ups or even use as a template.

Price is free, just let me know.

the problem with older bullets is the balsa coring in the hull.... if water gets down there and then it freezes with the balsa core and then it thaws the balsa core crystallizes and becomes structurally useless

Looks like a fun project

Buy it.
Pull the deck off.

Hollow out the internal structure.
Spray it will pool liner concrete.

Most likely there is a reason it's laying there stipped of everything.

Even if you got it for free, that's like getting a bill for $40,000 on the low estimate.

I would try to get the k-planes cheap and leave the rest of it.

well, my .02 since I have done it for years..... with lots of wheeling and dealing you can put a boat together cheap, 9/10 people can't....

I did it a few times, do it with cars all the time and a couple boats... it can be done right if your smart about it...

I bought a huge pile of boat parts a few years ago, everyone said it was all garbage, I more then doubled my money, kept 8000+ worth of parts for myself to build my own boat, so for me that was making money and free parts.....its all about the deals!!
