Yes.

Put one hand over an eye to remedy the double vision induced by the vodka and bull you've over medicated with tonight and slowly read the title again with the uncovered eye. Get back to us with your conclusion.

Sold the last one shortly after it was complete.

This one is just a mild build 420 454's with trs drives, all white bilge, new dash just going to make someone a very nice boat that looks good and very dependable.

The next one will be 92 and doing a red paint scheme 540's, fully customized engine compartment, imco boxes, xr's with shorties, billet swim platform, and lots of other misc things you don't normally see.

Wow... just gorgeous. Hope to do this one day.
Has anyone every dropped ASD's into a cafe? Obviously that makes no sends from a financial standpoint but it would be one badass cafe (and what part of this past time makes any financial sense anyways)

Here are a few. We decided to redo the whole dash on the blue one, and here are a few pics of the new hatch being built on the red one. That cig logo is the air intake vent all made in stainless. The blue one is also getting all new interior throughout.

He should have it all cleared by now, but I think it's coming out nice.

eightsecmopar 06-27-2016 07:28 AM

Awesome work!

BDiggity 06-27-2016 11:12 AM

The red one came out great. We checked it out 2 weeks ago when meeting with Vince to finalize my hatch work.

blown 06-27-2016 12:19 PM

Love the "1" cutout in the back of the hatch. Interesting that it does away with the side vents completely, curious to see pics of that completed.

We just went for a clean look by closing up the vents on the sides. It's a big opening in the front and a good size vent in the back to let the air out.

donzi matt 06-27-2016 01:07 PM

That hatch as well as the rest of the boat looks outstanding. Nice work!

yschmidt 06-27-2016 03:27 PM

WOW!!! That looks fantastic

carter38 06-28-2016 06:30 AM

Thanks guys it's been a slow process but it's starting to come together.

Vincent is done with the boat, and just has the bilge panels to paint and the custom swim platform to do.

Well we decided to just go all out on this red café and finally got it done. We ended up building a whole new dash layout with carbon fiber panels, and heads up indicators and did all new alcantara interior, new JL stereo, new cig gauges, and switches.
