I text Phil.

Maybe Eddie would have a cool billet one.

Tank, those are real hard to find. Not made anymore. I was able to get one from phil out of his parts bin, but that was probably 4-5 years ago? Could try him, might have one off a redo.

If you find a viable solution, please post it.

Have Yankey make you one. It will be amazing if you do. https://www.facebook.com/YankeyCustomBillet/

oh sh!t! I’ll check it out. Don’t know if it’s much better than the one I have. I really just need a working locking mechanism.

Tank, if that's the same latch you have I'll tell you where you can find one........on a vintage Coleman metal cooler.

Tank, will this latch work? Its hard to tell from the picture what yours is like.

I’m gonna have to take a closer look at it when I go back out to havasu. The pic I posted isn’t my boat it’s just a pic of an access door. Phil told me yesterday that there’s different latches that were used. But the door is sticky too and doesn’t sit flush which bothers me. Whole thing just kinda looks like sh*t lol.

Kelly, it may be something like that.

jim that’s the glovebox latch. I’ve thought about using that and making it work but I think it’s be a PITA to get to work right. I’m kinda liking the billet eddie Marine complete package style if I can find one. That would look nice.

Here’s a link...

yeah, see I think I could make that work. Keep the stock housing, the volt gauge and switches and put the billet door on the outside. Think I could make that work.

Call Dustin Carter, he's redone many a cig

yep. Carter hooked me up with the original font cafe racer logos for the fairing. 👍

Tank, here is the latch I have on mine. I'm not sure what the Cafe's came with, but if you don't have any luck with Eddie Marine. You might check this option out with West Coast Offshore.

That`s an expensive medallion!

dang. Didn’t even think of asking Kevin. Known him for years.

and yes! I think that’s the correct latch! Awesome.

If that’s the latch you have Phil should have those.
Same pop up, turn to unlatch that’s in the cabin/cooler/glove box door.

so, turns out the perko latch jim posted is the wrong one. But while I was figuring that out bencini231 (Chris) on here reached out to me and said he had a door and latch in his garage. Text me a pic and low and behold not only is it the correct latch and door it’s custom painted and matches our boat colors. Worked out a price and he’s gonna ship it out. Power of OSO comes through again. Thanks Chris!

That looks like a old window latch.

was that the only part of the bullet that didn’t have a scratch? :popcorn:

Getting closer!! Floors being printed now.

Marine Mat or something different?

Looks cool.

I believe Seadeck

Tank, who is doing it? and what is the cost? I am looking to do my Cafe flooring as well. Please forward me the info. Thanks

SC WAKE. they’re in havasu. I dont know the cost yet. But they now have the measurements for a cafe. Give em a call.

https://scwake.com/team-sc-wake-sead...avasu-arizona/

I would think they would want to template every one individually. You never know when things are a quarter inch off here or a quarter inch off there.

You would never know it but my tiger is asymmetrical as hell! Of course the floor has been out in my boat. When I did my Marine mat, we did a couple of the mylar templates to really get it right. Turned out good.......

Seadeck I put in my Gladiator

And they had to do it twice to get it to fit perfect...$1000...

Foot rest

seems like all your stuff takes longer................:champs:

That's because i'm a perfectionist.

And most people in Florida are in slow motion.

It must be all that sun! LOL

I think you’d be fine same era / model boats. Only concern I’d have would be the bolsters. I mean if the bolsters are 1” off in any direction you’re kind F’d I suppose. But as far as deck and cabin I think you’d be fine. Most places do that paper template thing anyway. These guys came out and measured it themselves so that was cool.

looking good Steve. Can’t wait to see it done. Get it to LOTO for the run... I want to drive it! 😂😂

Lucky Strike, who did yours? I am in Illinois so I would feel safer making a template to be sure it fits perfect.

ill post some pics when it’s in. They do the template thing too. If it’s cost affective and comes out good, worth an inquiry.

Definitely, post some pics as soon as you get it done. Did they have any issues doing the "Cigarette" logo?

got it approved through the factory along with the Livorsi gauges.

all legitimate and trademarked up and what not. 😁😁👍

Yes, I didn't have the luxury of having someone close enough to measure so I had a couple trial and error templates. Bolsters were definitely wonky.....

https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...28255811c.jpeg

One advantage to marinemat is that it snaps in and can be taken out but same material as SEAdeck but not glued .
ZOOM, I spent an hour at a place on the way home from LOTO, they measured everything and 2 weeks later I got a quote for $4000. not including any logos. I wasn`t born yesterday.

Seems most charge $1500-$2k

That's more like it.

I like being able to take mine out and wash it. My footrests are snapped in and the rest is just laid in. I meant to put some Velcro down but never got around to it. It will lift up a little in some wind conditions but it's rare......
