87 F223LS Making some progress
This ol bird has been keeping me too busy. I have been neglecting the interior to get the engine and exterior workable.
I finally got in the cuddy and reattached my port mood (interior side) lamp that's been falling off for two years, and on my way out I started checking for my dash rattle. It turned out there were some nylock nuts under the center support of the driver dash that weren't snug. I love it when there's an obvious solution. I would have been out on the boat today but i had the exhaust repaired on my truck. Normally I DIY, so don't hate me for paying for exhaust, the guy had to bend up and weld some pipes to fit. This boat reminds me of the kid in school that had a fast car that always needed something done. I'll be out there tomorrow though. |
Old boats are stubborn b!tches but they come together eventually. So worth it! Congratulations on your progress and go get that thing wet. |
They are definitely a labor of love... wouldn’t change a thing! A lot of my enjoyment comes from working on her. Get out and have some fun! Oh, and no worries about having someone do your exhaust. That’s one job I like to leave for someone else to do! |
