Because the owner want's it to look as if it still has the bladders in it so I built the alum. tanks to fit behind the covers and we painted the tanks a pail yellow to resemble the Kevlar bladders that were original.

Attention to detail cool thanks.

working on the 1st engine wiring and plumbing its a hornets nest of stuff.[ATTACH=CONFIG]549653[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]549654[/ATTACH]
Also working on fitting the original seat so that we can reproduce the storage lockers behind the seat and the fuel fill panel.[ATTACH=CONFIG]549655[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]549656[/ATTACH]

Nice work !!!

The engine room fuel tanks are painted so now we can start wiring and plumbing.[ATTACH=CONFIG]549713[/ATTACH]
Tried to make them look like they are Kevlar. you will only be able to see the very tops of the tanks once the covers go on.

Spent the last couple of days building the fuel fill panel for the saddle and main tanks. Got the dry breaks the other day only $ 275.00 each and it takes 8 of them luckily I got the 8 for the front deck. But of course they had to be modified because why not everything on this boat is custom. LOL.[ATTACH=CONFIG]549887[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]549888[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]549889[/ATTACH] Made it look just like the original the only photo I have is this one of the original panel[ATTACH=CONFIG]549890[/ATTACH] And you have to look at the very top of the picture. You can also see the fuel tank covers in this picture.

Luckily we got the mounting rails witch were still mounted in the boat for reference

Great work!

Primed the oil system on the first motor today hope to fire it up on sat. Got our custom drive plates from Steven at Innovation Engineering they were perfect. they had to be custom because you know that Gentry had to make there own bolt pattern on the drive plate witch was drilled in the flywheels that we got with the motors. Thanks Steven.[ATTACH=CONFIG]550556[/ATTACH]

I'd like to thank David B. for all of the photos of the boat back in the day. They really help in figuring out all the missing pieces for the project[ATTACH=CONFIG]550557[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]550558[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]550559[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]550560[/ATTACH]
