Whoa! WOW . . Between you and Kalaazar Magnum restorations have some high marks to shoot for . .
A few questions . .
Seat bolster frames . . made by who???? Are these from Great Lakes Skipper?
Rub rail . . .who makes this whole set up?
Have you completed the exhaust? I presume you'll need to install hose over those ends and the "arched" SS is for water flow?
Thank you!
Great work! Congrats!

Thanks for the kind words! Yes the frames are from great lakes skipper, they are SS and out of a smaller Baja. They fit the boat well since they are low, narrow, and simple looking. The rub rail I believe is from lewis Marine supply in ft lauderdale, it is a hard plastic capped with a SS insert. I am yet to finish the exhaust, the tips are some 4" Hardin marine and it is going to be tricky to make a quick "s" bend to drop down to them. The arched SS tab is for the rubber connection to maintain water flow. I searched hi-and low for a manifold setup that would allow me to run the factory flat hatch, those Hi-Tek manifolds did the trick. I was a bit skeptical as they are sold in Australia and made in China but they are actually a very high quality looking piece. I cut the flanges off and stood them up more and welded new flanges on to get the motors closer together.

Kinda wish i kept them now, go in my Mag. Actually i am going full sit down PPI style seats and a shifter/throttle center console with no door access to the cabin. More of a mini Gladiator sort of layout. This thing is incredible love the colors and the OEM hardware, the old school life line is a must.

Dave..............Honestly I don't remember, but if you say so. To think of all the mistaken decisions I've made recently concerning bolsters & bolster frames .......it figures!

Got it like five or six years ago or so, theres a thread somewhere. I havnt done anything but round up parts, running Arnesons and LS's. Just about ready to start grinding/sanding. It is going to be a full sit down boat with console between the seats like a mini Gladiator. I have a twenty Cig to finish before i dig into this thing
