Looks great! I bet some magic eraser will do wonders on the interior looks like it should clean up nice, unless I can't see pics well... Spray nine and erasers work great!

Engines look good too like the colors

Phuck that

Do a good thorough health check on the motors and drivetrain and go run the CHIT out of it to make sure she is healthy so you will have all winter to fix her if she's not

The motors are fresh, talked to the builder (CMS) they are 540s, bowtie blocks, callies cranks, carrillo rods, J/E pistons, hyd roller cams, edelbrock hard anodized aluminum heads, 850 cfm proform carbs, est 620-640 a side. They have 20 hours on them. The trannys were done at the same time, one drive has been recently been done, and the other has 50-60 hours on it.

I did a sea trial the first time I looked at it, it has 26p 4 blade props and was turning only 5k, and was running 68 in flat water 3 people and full tanks, the owner said he was running 25s and in the low 70s at a bit more rpm, but he blew a lower, and lost a prop, hence the 26s on there now

My buddy on here with his 38 Topgun twisted a propshaft off his having it propped up for speed like that with the 26s . He dropped down a size and lost some speed but had no problems afterwords if /i am correct.
