interior has no covering or headliner but the cushions look to be in good condition.

The down side. A few snaps have pulled out and on the "fairing" area ther are hles where there may have been a wind-deflector installed at one time. Also the bottom is painted but the chips on the keel apear to be just in the bottom paint. A fewe stress cracks in the Gel but not too bad.

Questions,

Was the wire on the bow an antenna or a grab handle?

TRS and tranny, how hard would it be to replace with bravo or would that not even be worth it?

how fast with a stock 454?

Wire is a lifeline

Switch to a Konrad if ya want

Not very fast, maybe 60, but close up the hole and strap 2 outboards back there you would see 75:drink:

You are correct. Yup, I bought the boat off of Walt Anderson a year and a half ago then spent 6 months getting it back in shape. Waiting for the motor to come back from the shop. Blew the one in it last time out. Coming back as a 526 should go good this time around.

That is a pretty subjective question.
But it could run 12-15k.
I would leave the tranny and trs. Nothing wrong w/ that combo.
There are plenty of TRS parts around, if you know where to go.
