Interior work & new embroidery

Interior is in slow motion I hate to say
If I knew it was going to take so long I would have left the original one in It wasn't that bad at all. |

Who is doing the work? Seems impossible to find a good shop that does this stuff anymore. I have a friend restoring a 20 cig and needs his done.

Mike is one of the best. He stays busy year round because of the quality of work he does. I hope to have him do an interior for me in the future.

Looking Good Steve !!
You are going to have yourself a Brand New Boat ! All The Best, Victor |
Hell yes!!!

The engines run like the low hour 525's with 168.2 hrs should, Perfect!
The engines are just as described by Randy who owns R & T Automotive in Lancing. Mi He was a pleasure to deal with & is extremely knowledgeable. He checked them from top to bottom and ran all the computer scans. He then sent them all to me to be assured exactly what I was getting for my money I couldn't have asked for engines with a better history 95 hrs below 749 RPM. 95% of the hrs. are below 3499 rpm's, all the hours are fresh water use He then prepared them for shipping which went off without a hitch. Id'e highly recommend him for your boating needs in his neck of the woods His # is 517 484 - 6335. He is also a Cigarette owner |

That’s a good looking ride!!!

That is a beautiful Boat for sure

Getting there
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...a30a204d9.jpeg
Hopefully front seats and side walls will be in next week. We then can at least test the boat....Rear seat to follow |
Nice choice on the "Diamond" pattern....How long did you think the "project" would actually take and it was in April that you were selecting patterns for the seats - and you are still chipping away perfecting her. Awesome job none the less

Seats
My interior guy who does all the work for our dealership
has not been feeling well and its been a long time getting it done. He is a master at his craft. Mechanically its ready but can't go in the water to test without front seats. Hopefully they will be in this week....If I knew this would have taken so long I never would have done it. The original interior was really nice, just a little faded. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...154ded7d1e.jpg |
Also putting in new flooring
|
Old Passenger Side Seat
|
The original back seat
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...210a20dd76.jpg
You can see the interior was certainly good enough But I wanted to make the boat like brand new! |
Ill I can say i WOW!!! First class all the way. Thank you for sharing...
